Section 8: Main Landing Gear and Wheel Fairings
Step 17
Once the landing gear door has been adjusted, move
the retracts to the extended position. Apply a few drops
of thin CA to the mounts to lock in their positions on
the landing gear strut.
Step 18
Apply a few drops of thick CA to the screws to prevent
them from loosening during flight. You may also want to
trim off the excess screw for a cleaner look.
Step 19
Repeat Steps 1 through 18 for the remaining retract.
