Now lets the landing gear as it will be necessary to do so
balancing of the plane can be done..
As I didn't get the original landing gear had to make it.. Not hard
to do.. Just get some 5/32 K&S wire stock from your LHS and
bend away..
First set desired height.. Make sure there is prop clearence..
As the nose gear was already made I used it for the basis of
where the height would be plus I wanted to allow for a 12" prop..

Here is one side done and a wire stock to make the other side..

1- Just put in vise, bend, then hammer corner to make it less of
a radius..
2- Now for the second bend ... With each bend do a trial fit to be sure it does fit..
3- Making the second gear is easier as basically copy the first one..
Even so, do a fit just to be sure...
4-And here we are, all the bends and cuts done...

Now that wasn't hard,, was it ...
And then mounting hardware..
The wheels have to be mounted to our newly made landing
gear..
Here we see a nylon collar from local Ace Hardware to keep the
wheel from binding on the small radius of the bend..
The brass collar with set screw from Ace will hold the wheel from
coming off the landing gear..

And here we are, babys first step...
So after spending a little time and very little funds we have
made the main landing gear for the Phoenix..
