Hi all,
I am wondering how folks are making out with Monowheel tires and tube life.
If I keep the tube inflation in the 18~20 psi then I find that it is really
tough on the tubes. Yesterday I had my second tube failure while on
landing. If you have ever had this happen is tough going, it is impossible
to move the aircraft by hand.
At this stage I am thinking of changing my tubes every 100 hours, but I am
wondering about the tire. The tire I have now has 370 hours on it and it
still has tread, how ever its obvious that the side walls have been weakened
by the constant running at low pressure, so perhaps I need to change it more
often as well. Thoughts ?
