I am using the stock mounting bolt locations for the stock gear in case I ever want/need to go back to that gear they will already be there.
The bush plane idea is great. I love watching videos of bush planes taking off and landing. Are you planning on flaps? Brakes?
The landing gear is impressive. I may need to try something like that some day.
