Default RE: Retractable undercarridge instalation in a RTF

Hi all
Looking at the pics from right too left:
Pic one shows the mods to the original firewall to accomadate the retract unit (Sping Air) note steering slot recess.
Pic two shows the secondary bulkhead used to get the retract as far forward as poss to allow sufficient leg length.
Pic three shows the retract in place
Pic four shows the steering arm in its recess on the original firewall, neccessary on retraction.
I'm just epoxying the firewall and secondary bulkhead together once done will progress with build.
Mike
