Chris,
After learning what Pete Z. and Ron P. were doing with the Powerslide wh
eels I ordered one from InlineWarehouse.com to give it a try. I have si
nce ordered a second one.

I wasn=99t too keen on the imbalance the valve stem creates and ca
me up with a novel solution. After Pete Z. confirmed he runs his tires
close to 10 psi, I realized I could replace the tube with thick wall 8mm
silicone tubing. The silicone tube gives just the right amount of squi
sh and retains the tire to the rim, and I don=99t have to worry ab
out a flat.
In full disclosure, I have only performed aggressive ground maneuvers to
verify the suitability of the silicone tubing. Hope to test fly the ne
w wheel once I remake the wheel fork with slightly different geometry to
allow the larger tire/wheel to fit in the wheel well better. It fits f
ine while testing it on the ground, however, I suspect with wind loads i
t will have an issue retracting fully into the wing.
Regards,
Erich
