Installing the landing gear
❑
29. On the bottom of the fuselage, 12-1/2" (318mm)
from the
engine
compartment, there is a channel
located under the covering. Locate this channel by
running your finger over the covering on the bottom
of the fuselage. Using a hobby knife remove the
covering from this channel.
Installing the struts
❑
30. Place a small bead of silicone sealant in the
landing gear channel. Locate the two chromed
landing struts and place them in the predrilled holes
inside the channel on the bottom side of the fuselage.
There are two nylon landing gear straps located on
the plastic parts tree. Remove these straps and place
them over the landing gear struts. Using a felt-tip pen,
mark the location of the strap mounting holes onto
the bottom of the fuselage.
Drilling the fuselage
❑
31. Drill the four holes using a 1/16" (1.6 mm)
drill bit.
Mounting the struts
❑
32. Using four 3 x 15mm self tapping screws, fasten
the landing gear straps to the bottom of the fuselage
over the struts. The struts should be flush with the
bottom of the fuselage.
Mounting the wheels
❑
33. Locate two 3/4" x 2-1/4" (19 x 57mm) foam
wheels and four 5/32" (4mm)
wheel collars
. Place one
wheel collar on each strut, followed by one wheel.
Secure each wheel with an additional wheel collar,
making a total of two on each strut, one on the inside
and one on the outside of the wheel.
