Default corsair gear doors

does anyone have a link to a thread that has a detailed description of how to build functional gear doors for the tf gs corsair I am just starting this kit and would love to build working gear doors. I know I have seen some good photos before but I cannot seem to find them again. Or if anyone knows a good method that they would like to share it would be appreciated Thanks TJ

If you do search for "Royal Corsair Project" in the warbird forum, you will find a 60 size corsair was modified for gear doors.

Also go to rcscalebuilder.com and look at the Nick Ziroli Corsair build. He uses air cylinders to operate the doors.

I have a set of BT plans that show the offset hinges, and he used a bell crank for each door. The bell cranks are linked together and servo driven.
