Pietenpol-List: do I need brakes
Pietenpol-List: do I need brakes
Original Posted By: "Oscar Zuniga"
Hi guys!I've built my Piet without brakes and with a skid. My question is, if I wantedto be able to operate off paved surfaces, do I need brakes, or would it workwith just a tailwheel. I'm using big motorcycle wheels so I'm thinking i'm going to need brakes. I'mjust trying like crazy to keep the weight down.thanksDouwe________________________________________________________________________________
