I have used a trailing arm design successfully for over 12 years
on various gliders . There attribute: it makes the wing /
wheel combination very stable even in rough grass. Here is a picture.

Hi Udo,

I am sure your design and fabrication are superior to what I am using.
Although I find that my wheel, once put on straight, stays straight.

Look at the file named Wing Wheel.jpg I have since covered the foam
with felt.

The construction is very simple with no glassing or welding required.
Btw, I could not get your URL to work.

Regards,

-Doug
