Strut fairings.
The main gear block on the right wing is cut and the gear installed. I will most likely glue in side rails with ply and then bolt the gear mount plate to that so I can remove it and if I do have a mishap hopefully the block will break loos and not tear the wing mounts out.
The strut fairing is trimmed and I will be cut to size once I determine strut length.
Scale length is 6" from axle center to bottom of wing. I need to make sure I have plenty of prop clearance with the 22-23" props. Planed prop will be a 22x10 Xoar.
Top of the fairing gets a piece of 1/8" balsa to form the top, this is glued in with CA and is only a plug. A piece of carbon laminate will finish out the bottom of the strut fairing.
The top gets one too once I cut it to length.
The strut fairing will be secured with a bracket and two screws.
