Work has been excessive lately so I haven't been able to get too much done. I finally ordered all of the pieces (I hope) last week to complete the plane. I will hopefully have it all sometime this week. I did get a few props already delivered. Just as I was amazed at the size of the fuse I am amazed by the prop size. I know how long 22 inches is but to see the prop in person when the largest pattern props I am used to using are 14 inch or so on the YS 120 is impressive.

Anyway I have mounted the wheelpants to the gear legs. I used the cheap way out with an 8x32 bolt. The method is the same as documented by Wayne Galligan on rcaerobats.net

For wheels I used a pair of MK 55mm plastic hub wheels that I had still in the package. They are at least as old as my 13 year old son. They are probably the largest I could use without enlarging the wheel pant openings. I measured and marked the wheelpants on a piece of masking tape and drilled through that for the axel. The 8x32 bolt threads into a blind nut in a piece of 1/4" lite ply on the inside of the wheelpant. An additional piece of plywood drilled for the bolt only supports the inner end of the axel. The ply was simply glued in place with 5 minute epoxy after shaping to fit the inner wheel pant contour.
