Hello Every one
I am working on an aircraft of my own design. Now it is about to be completed but as I included wings, seat, fuel tank emphenage and engine the aircraft got heavy (But within the limit). So when I push the aircraft forward, one of the wheel widens and the gap between the wheel tracks widen, It is a tricycle gear. But this thing never happened when I tested it with the truss work alone in the beginning when it was having less weight. Now as it got more weight it is widening. Please suggest me some ideas to overcome it. Is it because of the over weight or is it because the wheel is not facing forward. I do not have an option to re twist the wheel to face it dead centre. Please share some suggestions, I have attached the pic for some clarity.
Regards
Mohan
