Working to get this jet done and out of my shop. The nose gear requires a 10 deg wedge be installed which is supplied with the kit. Don’t forget this or you will hate yourself later
The forward mount assembly is a bit flexible so it’s best to drill the holes with the mount installed on the fus. I already had the airframe upright so I flipped the mount upside down, stuck it in the fuselage holes, and clamped the gear in place. This made it easy to align the gear and drill the holes. Once the gear was screwed in place I flipped the mount over and everything lined up perfectly.
