2. Test fi t the landing gear fairings to the landing gear.
(There is a right and left fairing. When properly installed you
will have access to the landing gear mounting screws. If they
are mounted incorrectly the fairing will cover the screw). After
determining the proper side of the landing gear to mount them
on, apply a bead of RC Z 56 glue along the inside bottom
edge of the fairing. Position the fairing on the fuselage and
tape it in place until the glue has dried. Do this for both fairings.
3. Locate the plastic turtle deck. Apply a bead of RC Z 56
glue along the inside bottom edge of the turtle deck. Position
the turtle deck onto the fuselage as shown and tape it in place
until the glue dries. Set the airplane aside to allow the glue
to dry on the fairings and the turtle deck.
4. Install an axle into each of the landing gear legs and
secure them with the 3/16" [5mm] axle lock nuts.
5. Slide two 3/16" [5mm] washers onto each axle followed
by the wheel. Install a 6-32 x 1/8" [3mm] set screw into the
3/16" [5mm] wheel collars. Secure the wheel to the axles with
the wheel collar. Be sure to apply a couple of drops of thread
locker on the set screws.
6. Mount the wheel pants to the landing gear with two
2-56 x 3/8" [9.5mm] machine screws, #2 lock washers and
#2 fl at washers. Be sure to apply a couple of drops of thread
locker onto each of the screws. Do this for both wheel pants.
