My two cents.

Which, compared to the cost of an LS-8, is what the tailwheel mod
costs. C'mon, support your local repair station!

Have converted three gliders (LS-4 #8, LS-6 #46, Nimbus 3 #18) to
real tailwheels with no regrets. Both LS were custom jobs, the N3 was
the factory kit. All were registered Experimental.

It's worth doing the mod!
But then I've been foolish enough to do about 1000 aero tows in high
position with a CG hook.

Hi,
Pushing backward on grass and gravel is difficult no other reason.
About 200 euros from DG. Still have to find out if I can do the work.

Hi,
After exchanging a few email with DG I will stay with my small wheel.
This is a
bigger job than anticipated Thank you for your info.
