Parkzone T-28 Trojan Landing Practice - July 12, 2009

[roberttreboranita]

what i did to help landings on pavement......take off the wheels...(not the front one) slide on a small washer onto axel and glue in place....when stuck 100% put wheel back on then another washer..finaly put the nut on with a little threadlock and tighten slowly...you want to tighten up so that it takes a little (not much) effort to turn wheel on axel...os of course it acts like a brake...get it right and you can make pretty short landings on pavement....so..get it right little by little!!

Nice video !

Maybe the wheels are supposed to be bouncy, to absorb the shock ?

get it on a nice low approach with the nose up so you will touch down on the back wheels.

to fast for landing

When the plane touches down, the angle of the wings change, which creates a boost of lift. Like you said, scrubbing the speed of should do the job.

Thanks for the cool foutage, I'll have my T-28 in a couple of days :-)

that's kinda funny the way it looks so smooth, then it just bounces. i think it might be your wheels possibly
