    I was going to have rigid main gear struts (triangulated with two struts attached to the base of the fuselage, and one up just under the seat), and rely on the 18 inch tundra tyres for damping, but I'm thinking I may find it more comfortable to include some form of damping.

     

    I was looking at rear shocks for bikes, and they offer 60-70mm travel, with a max loading of about 250kg each.  Larger are available, of course.  They are also quite reasonably priced.

     

    Would this work?

      You don't want it too rubbery (Travel) It will only get more x wind sensitive on the ground and I think it will be pretty limited already. Nev
