    The tail wheel is castoring and rotates freely. I think the real Spit maybe had a locking mechanism but I couldnt be sure... @Spitfirelad05

    Could be... apparently the Spits’ castoring tailwheel was a PITA and only effectively countered by differential braking on the main wheels. I cant build a model with differential braking... So its power up, pucker up and hope for the best on take off, im affraid.@Treadmill103
