What a great looking bird and I am having so much fun flying it but this gear is ridiculous.
You can see it bend at 2:10 and honestly, thats a bump it should be able to take.

Looking at that NOW I'm worried. Almost afraid to maiden before my clubs Warbird Flyin. Have a question for you. Can you tell me how far from the ring you cut your exhaust? And how far it sticks out of the cowl. My ring is on the way and I would like to trim it before I mount it to the engine.
