the plans for the ultra-piet call for a 1 inch axle but finding wheels with a 1 inch hub is getting to be a bit of a challenge.
would two of these with a 3/4 inch axle work for a plane that comes in under 600 pounds fully loaded with a landing speed of around 25mph work?
I know side loads aren't great on high wheels, but a. i know how to do a crosswind landing, and b, i'm sure you don't want to subject the wooden gear legs to too much side load anyway.
