• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Where on the plans does it mention anything about the tailwheel and how to make it ? I've looked several times and haven't been able to find it yet.


Scott did a helluva job making his "Haigh" tailwheel... a little too advance for this builder. And a Scott 3200 is upwards of $2700.00 (is that right ???)... a little too pricey for this builder. There is a replacement for the Scott called an Alaskan Bushwheel for $1700.00 (if that's as cheap as they get I think I'm gonna vomit) I don't think the Raven will support the weight of this Raidal Skybolt.
