Default RE: UCD

ok here is one for both of you. take your gear off, pull the tank out, now taketwo peices of fiber glass put one from the sloped part of your nose where the cowl covers, run it from forward to aft wraping it over the gear mounting block and around the bulk head that holds your wing in, epoxy that with 12 min. After that dries take a nother peice and run from starbord to port (righ to left) covering the landing gear block and the peice of glass you just wrapped over it previously, you only need to run it about 1/3 of the way up the fuse. make shure you cut away the monofilm just where the glass is going to go this obvioulsly gives you a better bond to the wood. after done cover the small peices where you cut off the monofilm. and put gear back. you will never have to fix your gear agian!!!!! This whole prosess took me about 1hr and i'll land mine anywhere be shure to use the glass you get from the hobby store, this way its not too thick. There you go. all better oh ya dont forget to recut the hole for your wing to push into the bulkhead, Later Chris Mc Nair
