Which Parts Are You Offering?

We are beginning with products that new builders might lack the necessary equipment to manufacture. An example of this would be engine mount bushings, which require a lathe for production. As we move forward and receive more inventory, we'll be adding additional components. Currently, we have parts available for the Legal Eagle UL, Legal Eagle XL, Double Eagle, and Cabin Eagle.

We're currently in the process of getting parts into production. Our focus is on incorporating parts for the Double Eagle and Cabin Eagle into our catalog. Some components, like hinges and engine mount bushings for Station One, are utilized across all Legal Eagles. Next on our agenda are wing fittings, bell cranks, and landing gear/strut fittings specifically for the DE and CE. Additionally, there are other components such as rudder and elevator horns and torque tube brackets. Please reach out to us via email with your specific needs and preferences so we can better serve these builders. We also welcome your feedback regarding the 4130 fittings made of 0.125" versus 0.090" thickness.

Gear-Wing Original Fittings.

Gear-Wing Updated and Laser Cut fittings.

These are made of .090 thick 4130 stee. They are laser cut and have been updated to allow for the diagonal tubes as shown on plans. It may still be required to removed metal to allow for weld bead sizes at tub connections but it will be far less material to remove than the original parts as shown on plans.

Tail Wheel System for UL and XL

We are offering drawings for the tail wheel installation pictured here. We first saw this in 2018 at EAA Oshkosh on Denny Sleen's Legal Eagle UL. We installed this in Legal Eagle XL S R 7-1/2 and it worked great, we changed XL ORV to this design earlier this year and it is doing good. We have had several inquiries as to plans to build, so here they are. The plans are 8-1/2"x11" sheets completed in CAD. Included is a complete list of material as we used. Tail wheel shown is similar to the Sonex, skate board wheels could also be used. Show is from ORV, it was a conventional type tail wheel with fiberglass tail spring. This came out lighter and works better. Tail post is 3/4" x .035 and the 5/8" tail post tube slides inside. We applied grease on installation. The price has been increased to include shipping by mail. Price should be $ 22.00 including shipping. If ordering only this part, please select pick up and we will mail them to you.
