My friend with the yellow Stinson used the TNT gear, mine just has the stock landing gear, after ripping it off the first time I went back in and added additional reinforcement to the mounting area. I think that the manual shows 2 different ways to reinforce, I have incorporated both as well as making the gear removable for repairs.
here are some pictures of my 2nd repair after dead sticking in the rough.

gear and sheeting knocked off on landing

structure fixed and sheeting being fixed. cutout is where gear and filler block will go

re assembled with new plastic. (plastic was free from friends who used fiberglass parts)
