Landing gear repair
Well I found the Lg block inside the fuse split and the piece is missing so I cannot reglue it.This is the vertical piece that holds the LG stationary. I am considering using a couple LG straps, possibly the ones that are molded to fit the wire. Any other ideas? Thanks jollyroger

RE: Landing gear repair
Slip in a brass tube the size t match the LG... get some "ultra blue" Bondo. Cast a new LG retaining block.
You can cast wing hold down blocks with this stuff for a 1.20 powered plane..... drill and tap and use the 1/4-20 nylon screws. the screw will break LONG before the bondo. Its about as light as an equal block of hard maple.
