This is a healthy post! It will take a while to take it all in. If anyone can summarize... If I'm not an expert, I need the robarts landing gear?
If you are a bit new to all of this the Robarts may be the easiest for you to use.

The hinges were missing from my kit, so I'm off to a slow start. Maybe I should just part it out? anyone need any parts?
Just because you were missing hinges?
Hinges are about the easiest things to replace, as GP, Dubro, etc. all sell replacements which are easy to get a hold of.
Most people don't bother with stock ARF hinges anyway, so you may be ahead of the game on this.
If you find that the lack of hinges causes you this much worry, you may want to obtain help from someone a bit more experienced.
They will be able to give you pointers when putting together your plane, that will make the whole thing easier and better.
