wheels and found the Dubro lite wheels to be the lightest of the ones I bought
or had. 16.6 gms for a pair of 2 ¼” wheels. They hold up fairly well
and I fly off of asphalt. I do store my planes hanging from the tail though.
I replaced one set last season.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

any brand, foam type tread. Stands work fine or you can stand the model on
its nose with wheels against the wall. Or hang it from thetail with wheels
against the wall. Either way, you're taking the load off the wheels.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
