  741. Looking for some brainstorm in here.<br />
  742. Yesterday went for a flight after couple of weeks of not flying the plane. Did the pre-flight, engine run, and on the takeoff roll, RPM didn&#039;t raise as expected, so engine not making full power I would say.<br />
  743. I downloaded the data from JPI EDM-900 and plotted some items (huge thanks to Savvy platform), and noticed my FF on yesterday&#039;s takeoff was low (around 7) compared to a previous flight takeoff (almost 12).<br />
  744. It worth say that after...<br />

  757.      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="bbWrapper">I have the stock tailwheel, with the forward pin (or whatever it’s actually called — the vertical swivel part) very close to the ground. I’m interested in getting one of the aftermarket forks that angle down, lifting the pin a little higher. Also considering a pneumatic tailwheel, as I have a long taxi.<br />
  758. <br />
  759. The questions:<br />
  760. 1) Which aftermarket forks are generally considered the best? I don’t want to exchange a fork that‘s too low for one that shimmies.<br />
