5.3.3. Landing Gear Installation
The main landing gear legs are laminated from a number of carbon and
glass rovings and cloth, in negative molds, and heat cured. This produces a
strong, but still flexible and lightweight, structure. Each leg is secured
through the underside of the fuselage, at the back of the chin cowl position,
into the factory-installed carbon reinforced plywood mount.
Landing gear comes drilled and ready to install but you still need to drill the
holes for the axles and wheel pants. If you have any problems inserting the
bolts through the landing gear to the mount, please re-drill through the
existing holes to make sure that there is no debris in the holes.
Assemble the gear using provided axles, or equivalent, to keep the weight
down. Make sure you use thread lock on the axle screws to prevent the
threads from backing off and losing the wheel or pant in flight.
