Hi Mark You'll probably also find that with a little toe-in as you wheel the beast backwards over several metres (say into a hanger) the wheels will work their way outwards and splay the legs until they build up sufficient flex to overcome tread friction and spring in again. This factor caused me hassles in setting my toe-in and camber correctly..... also it alters as you lift the tail because the legs move from an angle to more vertical. There are many other variables as you have described...so many that I finished up making the arbitary decision to go with zero toe-in and camber at gross weight in level attitude. Seems to work OK. Prop torque and hasty power changes seems to have a much more profound effect on controllability in my aircraft than does small shim changes to axle geometry.
