If necessary, you can pack a few
layers of 0.8 mm plywood on top of
the rails to get the landing gear unit 1-
2 mm further up. As soon as the gear
cycles smoothly use a pen to mark the
holes to be drilled.
With the gear mounted, determine the
best wood tab positions for the little
sheet metal screws to hold the
permanent gear covers in place. You
can use scrap pieces of 3mm plywood
to make the tabs and glue them in
place with thick CA. Fit the
permanent covers with tape and drill
1.5mm holes, which will work
perfectly for the supplied 2.2mm
sheet metal screws.
Check allignment of gear to be
parallel in front and side view.
