Dear Jim,
The Tri-gear was indeed spun, although we didn't record this with video. The
behaviour
in spin recovery is much the same as with the mono-wheel. The Motor
glider also was spin tested.

Hear Hear!
I don't believe any one (except Van's I'm told) can so what we can.
Hav'nt seen a video where he shows what it can do safely. Ours is tried
and proven. A caviot to this, the tri-gear was not spun, only the
mono-wheel. So, be careful. However, loops and rolls seem nice.
