Front and rear phenolic adjusters

Reshaped the gear legs as shown; right was the original shape and left is the reshaped leg. Shaved 1/3 the weight, down to 42 grams. The gear is very strong at 42 grams and overall shape and rear rake are attractive too, so I am making a new mold for these.

The original white pants an left are a bit on the heavy side at 26 grams each. The narrower pants on the right come out of my mold with hard points built in. Alignment is in the mold; weight is a tidy 14 grams ready for paint. Throw in the aluminum axles I've developed for the pant hard points and the weight savings really add up.....

BTW- don't you just hate wheel rattle after a few dozen flights? It seems no matter what you do, you just can't quiet the beasties. Well, I may have discovered a solution. Need a bunch more flights on the wheel set-up to make sure but it's looking good so far
