That would be great to see in production !!

I modified the original Wist Model innovation quite a bit to simplify alignment and improve the installation to the fuse. The struts simply plug in....very tidy inside the fuse

The total weight of the mount in the fuse is about 20 grams. My complete, rtf weight of the gear is just under 5 ounces with spats. So about 5 1/2 ounces installed and rtf.

I make struts and spats sets in my own molds. Aligned in the mold, these are highly engineered units that are exceedingly strong since I fly from rough grass airfield. Not any spat will do. So factory execution will wait to be seen since attention to detail is critical....
