Default RE: kadet senior tail dragger question

fwthomas, I just noticed a reply I wrote for you here got lost somehow. Here goes again:

Mods to the GP 1/4 Giles 202 ARF gear:

1. Trim the upper mounting tabs to fit Kadet fuselage.
2. Drill additional hole as required to mount gears to fuselage.
3. Spread the bowed legs out a bit, both to widen the stance and to lower the nose.
4. Bend the lower wheel mounting tabs to be veritcal again.

I really like these Giles 202 gears. They come two-piece and are very versatile. Very reasonably priced too. I have used them on two other taildragger conversions.
