A little toe in is okay...Beats toe out...How much are we talking? If it's just a little it will be fine.

Here are two photo's of the toe in mine has. I love this little Bi-plane I do not know how many flights are on it but the integrated timer for this plane on my DX8 shows over 80 Hours of flying time I have been flying this one since the came out with it Love doing in Flight Video's with one of my Go-Pro white's velcroid to the top wing LOL!!!! I hope the photo's help with the toe in the PT-17 tracks very straight. To many planes not enough time LOL!!!!Originally posted by Saltydawg View PostHey Peps, so I'm getting my planes ready for spring and I noticed my PT17's gear wheels are both toed in!? Before I go removing the gear and tinkering with it I was wondering if any of you have had the same issue

Aros. I took those photo's for Saltydawg to show Him about where the toe in should be. Here is a photo I grabbed out of one of the video's I did with one of my GO-PRO White's velcroed to the Top wing Using the Velcro to mount the GO-Pro I can quickly reset the camera in four different position's Left, Right, Forward, and Back Love this little By-plane have been flying the H out of it since it first came out. As I stated early it has over 80 hours flying timeOriginally posted by Aros View PostYep that's the "right amount" of toe in. Should track straight and true!

Aros Unlike a lot of the SEASONAL Flyer's I try to get out at least 3 to 4 times a week every week of the year no matter how cold it is. As long as the winds are below 15 and the sun is out. We put on some where between 3 to 4 hrs. of flying time each day we fly. One of the biggest decision I have to make before I head out to fly, is What 3 or for planes should I fly today. LOL!!! All War Birds, EDF's, Bi-Planes, Twins, racers, Choppers or Any combination of the bunch LOL!!!Originally posted by Aros View PostLove the shot! Glad you're having a blast with her. Fun bipe for sure!

Yeah that's about the amount of toe-in mine has. Never really thought about it much, but it being the off season I'm going through all my planes doing refunding, some new paint jobs and all. I just never noticed the toe-in before. I'm an A&P mechanic so some things like that makes me want to fix it....lol
