Hi Dennis,

I added a 1/8 ply plate to the inside of where the landing gear attaches, and
I thoroughly epoxied it to the existing formers, fuse sides and bottom ....I hope that will be enough... I also replaced the 4mm steel bolts with four 1/4-20 nylon bolts that pass through the old hard points and go into blind nuts anchored in the new ply plate....The model is very nicely built but is pretty lightly built..almost as though it was intended to be electric powered....

I'm always open to more suggestions or comments. Now is the time to make any needed modifications...!!

Randy
