That I understand. So what you need is wheel spats ala GT450 with the vertical fins and rudders on these to prevent the yaw. These can be coupled to the front fork so you can use your feet to steer as per ground control. See red rudder mod on KWiK

I understand that you are currently flying a 3-axis, and would like to try your hand at flying a trike??
:oops: :oops: :lol:

yes I suppose it is. instead on Fixed Wing TO Trike, I read Fixed Wing ON Trike ## ##

Now if Agent could clearly post his question next time as ...... How difficult is it to convert from Fixed Wing to Trike... we would all understand :? :wink: :lol:
