Default Jantar 3 Axle Diameter?

The HPs are like that as well, if you use a typical Cleveland you have
to make the spacers different widths to fit the wheel, disk, and
caliper all onto the yoke. It has not been a problem for anyone I know
of. My HP-18 is like that, and I can't tell that the wheel is off-
center.

The Matco wheel/brake units are also a good choice, and for obsessive
symmetrophiles they can be fitted so the tire's plane of symmetry
coincides with that of the fuselage. However, when you measure them
closely most glider fuselages aren't really all that symmetrical
anyhow.

Thanks, Bob K.
