Default Another neat tool find...

I never met a tool I didn't like... especially if it makes my life easier. While rummaging around on the tool truck the other day, I came across this neat right angle extension made by Omni Tool that fits a standard 3/8" drill and thought, hey... that looks like it may come in handy! Different bit sizes are available in different lengths, but the stubby ones caught my eye. These bits thread into the adapter. A few pics of it in action... sure makes for getting into those tight places a breeze.

Nothing special about the nose gear unless you never saw the setup before. The nose wheel setup does away with the conventional pull/pull cables that we are all familiar with, and uses a direct drive. The servo mount is bolted to the retract trunnion, hence the servo travels with the retract through its motion.
