RE: U-Can-Do landing gear collapse
If you have wheel pants on the UCD, remove them.
This will also prevent the pants from cutting through the wings on a subsequent gear collapse.
When re-inforcing the gear mounting area ( assuming you are putting on the larger nylon bolts ) remember that your intent is to spread the torque forces out over a larger area.
Slopping on a bunch of epoxy is not good enough.
The gear act as a relatively long lever acting on a small area, much like a nail puller on a hammer.
You want to spread that torsional force out as much as possible.
Adding longer runner strips of bassword or heavy ply along the bottom of the fuse, prevents the block area from ripping out.
But you want to identify your purposely created "sheer point"... in this case those larger nylon bolts....
On a hard landing the bolts will fracture or bend saving the fuse and hopefully the wings from damage.
Of course the best thing to improve, is the pilot, so this does not happen.
