5.2.3 Fuselage gear
The landing gear is designed as dry assembled system consisting of 4mm carbon rods. In
case of mishap during landing, the damaged parts can easily be replaced. Insert M3 nut in
between the wheel cover parts and glue them together. You can use toothpicks for proper
alignment. Insert M3 nuts holding the wheel axle and glue center head fairings to assembled
boots. Slide the assembly onto 4 mm carbon fibre rods lenght 316 mm and 270 mm along
with gear legs covers into the fuselage. Don’t glue the rods into the fuselage. Secure the
carbon rods with screws, fit and assemble the holders. Assemble the wheels discs and tyres
and secure them inside boots using M3x30 bolts. You can add a scale wire spring system, but
it’s not necessary for correct function.
