PZ Focke Wulf 190 *landing gear*?
My Wulf is on its way in 3 days! i so excited, but thats besides the point. for me, on of the funnest parts of flying r/c planes is landing it and i am dissapointed that after 3 warbirds, parkzone still hasnt put landing gear on one. does anyone know of any landing gear that would work well on the Focke Wulf?

I fly off of pavement, and need a landing gear. Here is mine. It doesn't affect CG if you have the axle even with the LE of the wing. To me it's all about the takeoff, and landing!

RE: PZ Focke Wulf 190 *landing gear*?
Sorry for the delay. The gear goes through the wing , and on the top of the wing you cut out a channel. The top of the landing gear (see pic) sits in that channel side by side. Then you fill the rest of the channel with epoxy. Just make sure the wheels are straight before the epoxy cures. The tail wheel goes in place where the fake one is. I just cut it off with the dremel tool, and epoxied it to the styrofoam. Or, you could just order a landing gear from E-Flite, it was meant for the P-47D. With this gear you only need to make an oval hole in each wing, and one in the rear of the fuselage. I think it costs around $15.00
