Main landing gear installation

Note: - If you temporarily attached the under carriage legs to the fuselage, now is the time to attach it
properly.

Locate the under carriage hardware pack from the accessories box. It will contain the following
items: -

Also, gather together the spats, cuffs, wheels and under carriage legs ready for assembly: -

First, notice that the undercarriage legs are airfoiled, the front of the legs is thicker than the rear.
Remember the orientation of them as you progress through the installation.

Next, slide the cuffs over the legs. Now take the axles and M6 Nyloc nuts and fit them to the
undercarriage legs. Use a drop of blue threadlok if you want to. Be careful not to over tighten the
nut onto the axle.
