Default RE: AV8R problems

Hi Warbird, I had the same issue with the incidence and not being able to shorten the front strut, I ended up simply bending the main gear a very small amount at the fuse and the adjusting the camber at the wheels. The amount of bending that is required is very small and it has not affected the strenght of the gear at all, I have done a few nasty landings and the gear holds it's new shape. I have also put an aircraft cable between the two main gear arms and find this helps alot with the dreaded AV8R bounce that can occasionaly happen.
