RE: CARF F4U-1 Corsair build thread

Gary, on the second picture of post 295, when gear is deployed (lowered), the threaded rod extends pretty far back. Would that interfere with the main spar?

That seems like a lot of nose weight. Mine is a plug-in wing version. I use a 3W 157 engine. I balanced mine with 4.75 lb of lead.
