dirtydingus,

That is a great solution! I contemplated doing the same thing to my Hangar9 Corsair when I was having nose-over problems with it. It is a bit easier to land than the GB, so I figured out how to land it softly before actually doing the mod. When you become very proficient at landing your GB you can always switch back to a taildragger configuration. What sort of mods did you have to make to mount the landing gear like that? Do you have any close up pictures of the bottom or your GB?
