Locate the formed landing gear wire. I rec-
ommend about 2° of toe in on the main gear
to improve ground handling. When you
place the formed gear in the landing gear
slots in the wing and project a line along the
axles, it should cross the wing tip about 1”
back from the leading edge. Twist the gear
if necessary until you accomplish this.
Locate the landing gear leg components
WPB7, WPB8 and WPB9. Sand a bevel on
WPB7 from the line indicated at the bottom
of the part to the edge for clearance with
the wheel pant.
The landing gear strut cover components. Assemble these
parts with the labeled side up for a left and right hand set.
Note that all these parts are mirrored so
assemble all components with the labeled
side up and you will have a left and a right
assembly. Use the wire landing gear tem-
porarily placed in the slot of WPB9 to insure
the proper gap, then glue on WPB7.

Install the landing gear wire into the WPB7
WPB9 assembly and then glue on WPB8.
Sand a taper on the bottom of WPB8 from
the bottom up to the line indicator line.
Taper WPB7 from the bottom up to the line for clearance
with he top of the wheel pant.
Place part of the wire gear into the slot when installing WPB7
to WPB9 to insure that the gap remains large enough for the
wire leg.
