That looks incredible. Good work

The reason I ask about retracts is I am considering using trailing link legs on the mains rather than the straight Robart struts. It may look a bit odd on the ground but seeing the trailing links in action at my club last weekend I am very impressed.

I may go for the 1/2 inch Robstrut for the nose. Any reason you used the 7/16 one?
Hey sic
Very interesting choice. Not very scale looking but its your plane and if you like them and they work out fine go for it.
As for the nose strut, i believed we used the 7/16 because it is somewhat of a tight fit in the nose. Then again we have not tried the 1/2 inch strut so it may work fine. If the width of the fork is wider on the 1/2 inch i would stick with the 7/16.

thanks
