Default RE: GP GEE BEE

Well GeeBee fans I just had a brainfart today while at the Hobby store . I thought about my gee Bee bouncing on the robart gear when landing ,thinking , I need some oil damping in the oleos to slow the rebound so's it won't bounce back in the air. Anyway long story short I piggybacked some heavy duty RC truck Oil dampers onto the front of my Robart gear .The whole thing will still fit under the wheelpants .I used some 80 weight shock oil and dyam it works great! It takes roughly a second for the gear to rebound back out now . I haven't flown it yet but I am rubbing my palms together . If I get access to a camera I'll post some pics .
