Since I couldn't test fly the estang I had to at least do some taxi
testing in front of the house. Normally I would just go to the field and give
it full throttle and probably take off in less than 10 feet and would not
experience the ground loops after 10 feet! However since I have the time all I
did was replicate what we did with the Esnipe. Had I been able to test fly the
estang successfully it wouldn't have been necessary . Now I can go out in the
street and taxi in a mostly straight line all the way to Nicks across the
street from me .... Maybe we could have taxi races in front of my house?

Good Job Lee, you are the second person to suggest that ! I have never
had that problem, however, I usually get off the ground quickly.

After doing ground loops every 10 feet during "taxi" tests i added a
tailwheel that cured the problem. Now waiting to see if it flys! Lee
