Hi...

Found a hog - bipe under the tree a couple of days ago and decided to start building. I'm fairly new to the hobby and have built a couple of kits and a couple of arfs. Anyway, I noticed that it calls for 6-32 hardware for the landing gear. Has anyone used nylon bolts like 1/4-20 or smaller instead of the steel bolts? This will be my first bipe and even now my landings ain't pretty. Also saw some notes on the c.g. and moving it forward to avoid noseovers. I fly at a grass field so I can see that happening. Any thoughts on that? Guess the distance to move the lg depends on the weight of the plane, too. I'l be using an OS 61FX. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance....
