| rayl | Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A | Build | 18-Jan-15 10:04 |  | | Views : 1040 | | The main L/G firmly mounted into it's plywood bulkheads. I used a "Wixey" digital angle gauge to make sure the fuse was level (laterally) then set a bar across the L/G strutts to insure that they were level before supergluing them into place. I then drilled 3/32" cross pin holes through the main member and inserted music wire into those holes. The L/G shouldn't move at all. |

Though not pretty the linkage works! Hats off to those of you who build models with servos and linkages. This area of aeroplane construction requires mastering a whole new and complex skill set incorporating areas of expertise that neither Gumby or me wish to venture into! |
