Hello Craig,

old thread, but evergreen model....just love the R1/R2s.

Great improvement, that was inspiring me and essential for all "wheel-shoe" -planes.

I did the same with my Hobby King Gee Bee R2, i`ve used the Seagull Gee Bee Z struts and divided the pants at the lower section.

Here´s a video on youtube:

If you read this, do you still have a Gee Bee R2?

Best wishes,
Wolfgang
