.020 wheels

Good morning Dave.

Yes, this is the Cox motor mount with landing gear and wheel pants. I have some of the dubro 3/4" tail wheels. These look like the axle is part of the wheel and they snap in.

Sorry pal, can't visualize that. Have some more and try again.

Dave...i think you need the coffee, lol!

Duke, i'll check tonight. I think i have some...what version do you need? I might have green or black.

From Bernie's Site:

Oh good you found them! I was looking all over the site just now. I knew I saw them on there.

Yes, the wheels for this.

Well, snap my shorts! (pants, shorts........... Get it?)

This is the only color i have, it's from the Mini Stunt.

Those wheels are very hard to find in any color.

...but Bernie is blowing out the firewall/landing gear because he has so many. The mind boggles.

Making a pair of "snap-in" replacement-wheels should be a fairly easy task, if someone could tell us the maximum wheel diameter that will fit (spin) inside the skirt.. along with the required axle-width and the required axle-diameter to snap-in to the retainers.



Here's an example..




Those are 3/4" diameter craft-store wheels which have pre-drilled hubs. Not a difficult item to find. K & S alloy tubing, solid-rod or music-wire is also not difficult to find. Once the proper axle-diameter and width is known, it is then possible to fabricate an axle. I would imagine the size (diameter) to be somewhere between 3/32" (my example) and 1/8".. but that's just a guess.

The wooden wheel's diameter can be easily reduced if needed.. by screwing the wheel onto a Dremel-tool buffing-mandrel and running the wheel against some abrasive paper. The wheel can be centered on the axle by using small flat-washers on both sides. This would prevent the wheel from rubbing on the inside of the pants.

Would these wheels be a fit?

Yes they are

Then whoever was looking for a set better grab them as they are only ones we have. Of course merch from our eBay store or our website can be added to take advantage of combined shipping.
