Default RE: MK Aurora 60 build - engine installation question

Here are the pics from fuselage inside, radio gear installation.
Under the transpararent plastic sheet are battery pack (Sanyo Eneloop 2000mAh) and receiver.

I spent some time over the weekend to get the nose landing gear retracting properly. There was interference with the silicone coupler, which connects header and tuned pipe. The landing gear wire hit it in retracted position. I ended up giving the wire a slight S-shape to clear the coupler. Next I have to find a simple way to keep the NLG centered when it retracts. I do not like it to be able to move around while being retracted, and may get into some undefined position for coming back down.
Any ideas for that?
