RC Wheel Toe-In Wedge

thingiverse

My RC aircraft handles much better on the ground when they have a little wheel toe-in. For those planes with bent aluminum landing gear, use a pair of these wedges on each wheel to add about 4° of toe-in. One wedge is placed on the outside (wheel side) of the aluminum pointing forward and another wedge on the inside with a thin edge pointing back. Check out the picture of the wedges on my Pulse 15e shown from underneath. The nose of the plane is to the left, and if you look closely, you can see the wheel slightly toed in toward the fuselage. This design was made for a landing gear with an 18mm wide aluminum strut and axle hole centered. The wedge can be scaled up or down for different width struts. This thing was created using Tinkercad, and you can edit it online at https://www.tinkercad.com/things/8LAQUIAbwq9.
