shock cords & tailwheel springs

[Laz]

I know there are plenty of threads on this subject, but I would like the "latest" info on what shock cords I should order for my BC12 D. the 910 HD or HDX ? Also, I need some advise on what tailwheel springs to use on a Lang for the same airplane.

Re: shock cords & tailwheel springs

I used 4 of the 9010 hdx last time and they are way too stiff. Next time I will try two 9010 hd and two 9010 hdx. If that is still too stiff I will just go back to four 9010 hd and change them every few years. I do a lot of back country and off airport stuff, so I want them stiff. But with four 9010 hdx it is like the gear is welded to the fuselage. They area starting to loosen up now. But it has taken much longer than I expected.
