G&P Hornet Gear - how the he!!
Ok, so, I've never bent landing gear before, I admit it. But damn, I figured it woudln't be this much of a deal. If anybody has built the G&P Hornet, and bent the gear to make it look sorta like the real deal, please, please, please drop a message and tell me how the H, E, double hockey sticks ya did it.

Dale,
Do you have a wire bender? if not give me a call, bring the pattern for the wire and the gear wire itself over and we'll bend it. It's not really hard, you just need the right tools for the job.
Besides, it's time you get this thing done already!!!!!!!! LOL
ps, aren't you putting retracts in it?

Ok, I need help. One isn't as short as the other and althought that is easily fixed, I'm looking at the nose gear and thinkin I might have to make it shorter than I thought so as I have it level with the back. Hmmmmmmm, uncharted territory, don't ya love it.
