Default RE: Nitro models pusher Bobcat?

ORIGINAL: topper5

well early'er in this thread i showed photos of the beginnings of retract installation photos, now they are all in and set the rest is cosmetic, my nose gear retract's far enough that i might be able to put doors on it to help with the wind Resistance on the front end, and the main gear ill leave alone i think they will cause very little drag once retracted, now on to finish the rest of the plane.
OH by the way im only gona power this with a ys-45 and tuned pipe, granted the pipe up the side of the fus wont look so pritty but ill get the juce.

Here's the beginning of my retract installation. It will retract straight back into the wing like the real thing. I'll put strut covers on it as well. The aileron servo cover has the servo mounted on the back side. I just enlarged the origional servo pocket and mounted it in.
The strut is forward of where they have it but still well behind the CG. I'll move the nose gear forward as well.

Lookin good Topper5!!!

This is fun!!!
