I’ve flown my tailwheel Sonex over 400 hours since 2007. Many landings were an adventure with a pedal dance when the tailwheel contacted the runway. I recently readjusted the tailwheel linkage. I thought I would do a visual and measured alignment. Instead I pushed the airplane forward along the center line of the taxiway. It made a gentle turn to the right. I adjusted the rod end incrementally until it tracked straight. Now the airplane tracks nicely when the tailwheel is lowered.

Mervin, Thanks for this tip. I've bookmarked your thread so I remember to adjust the tracking when I get to that stage of building. Paul
