    @Chancey21 that makes it a twin tail taildragger, in my opinion. Tail wheels are there just to keep the tail off the ground, with main wheel carrying the load. It works better with CoM a bit further behind the front wheel and with shorter vertical stabilizers to get wheels off the ground on takeoff more easily.

    I say it’s both, it’s a taildragger like you said but it has one gear in front and two in back @EternalDarkness

    @CRJ900Pilot this is a monowheel taildragger, like most gliders, except that it drags two tails. Tails need to be off the ground for the front to go up, which is also a characteristic of draggers. Tricycles rise the nose first. Another characteristic of taildraggers is that front wheels are the main gear (front wheel here), while on tricycles rear wheels bear the bulk of the load.

    Yeah, you could look at it that way. I classify a tail dragger as a plane with a single wheel on the tail, like a piper cub. I classify a trike as a plane with 2 rear wheels and 1 nose wheel, like a Cessna 172. @Chancey21
