Locate the two main landing gear assemblies
from Step 3.1 Carefully insert the wire end of each
assembly into the holes at the end of the landing gear
slots. We suggest rotating the assemblies back and forth
and wiggling the wire down into the holes until the landing
gear is just slightly away from contacting the fuselage.
See the illustration below.

Consult the illustration below before proceeding.
Then rotate the two main landing gear assemblies so that
they line up with the slot in the fuselage. Press the wire
down firmly into the slots. Tapping with the handle and
then the blade of a screwdriver will help seat the gear
wires into the slot.
Install the 2 landing gear straps
[MGRS]
, approx 9 mm x
21 mm (3/8 x 7/8 in.) made of white plastic with a hole at
each end using the 4 sheet metal screws
[MGMS]
approx 15 mm (5/8 in.) long and a Phillips screw driver.
Turn all the screws in evenly a small increment at a time.
Tap on the gear wires as you go until the screws are
firmly holding the straps in place and the straps are
holding the gear wires firmly into the slot in the fuselage.
