Installation - Retractable Gear.
1. Use a hobby knife with a new #11 blade to
remove the covering to access the landing gear
mounts. Leave 1/32-inch (1mm) of covering
around the inside edges. Use a trim seal tool to
iron down the covering around the edges to finish
the opening.
2. Place a main landing gear block in the wing.
It may distort the covering slightly during its
installation. Make sure it is resting flat on the
landing gear rails.
3. Prepare a 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit by wrapping
a piece of low-tack tape around the drill bit 5/8-
inch (16mm) from the end of the bit. This will act as
a marker so you don’t accidentally drill through the
top of the wing. Place the drill bit in a drill.
4. Use the drill and drill bit prepared in the
previous step to drill the four holes for the landing
gear block mounting screws.
5. Remove the landing gear block from the wing.
Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to thread a 3mm x
14mm countersunk self-tapping screw in each hole
to cut threads into the landing gear rails. Remove
the screws after threading the holes.
