Default RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

I still have a long way to go. I shelved the 51 for a while to focus on getting other planes that are much closer to being done, completed, since I found myself rushing through the wing build.  My retracts stick up too much, not so much the retracts, but the wheels. I have the diamond tread wheels that look scale, but they are too thick and the wheel door sticks up too high.  I was concerned of weakening the wing by cutting W2 down too far.  After seeing what others have done and finding they basically dont even have W2 anymore, I am reconsidering how I have the wheel well.  I'll get back to mine in a few weeks, my Dewey is almost RTF.
