Reaper, go to the news group and perform a Google search under Goldberg Sukoi. This plane's been around for a long time and there's a ton of info out there about the landing gear problems.

FYI, the last release of the kit, had the LG moved to the fuse - where it belongs IMO.
I have this kit under the bench and whenever I get around to building it, I will also re-engineer the Lg to mount on the fuse.
