Default RE: Insight build...another wood roach.

Today I cut the landing gear plate (1/4" ply) and attachted the gear legs (Icepoint gear cut in half). I used four 4-40 screws and blind nuts for each gear leg. The plate will be glued in between F3 and F4 (half former), so now was the best time to setup the landing gear assembly. I also cut lightening holes in the plate to reduce the mass of the plate slightly. I took this opportunity to true up the width of the gear plate to the width of the main fuse formers (1/8" lite ply).
