The tires were unwrapped from the plastic they came in during the last session. The first wheel was disassmbled. I also pulled out one of the bearings to see how much grease there was. The instructions say they must be repacked before use, but I decided to leave the existing grease since they will get little rolling for a long time and preservation is more important. ***I will need to repack them near the end of the project before starting taxi tests.***
I also got the air compressor set up to be able to inflate the tires so I didn't need to use a bicycle pump.
