Another issue is the gear hangs down slightly when retracted. There is some play in the gear locking mechanism. I set everything up with the wing upside down and it will certainly fly that way occasionally so in that orientation the gear doors are perfectly aligned with the wing. But if you flip everything right side up the gear hangs about 1/16" down. So the gear doors are slightly open. Hopefully this is normal and not a problem in flight.
