4. The struts should extend roughly

-inch (2.5mm)

through the top of the wing. This will give the landing

gear support disks plenty of strut to attach to.

Hint: You can just drop the disks into position and check

to make sure the strut extends beyond the disk instead of

measuring it.

5. Check that the wheels are parallel or have slight

toe-in. Use foam-compatible CA to glue the struts to

the fuselage and each other. Make sure the wing is

sitting parallel to the ground so the wheels are located

at the same height.

6. Install the landing gear support disks using foam-

compatible CA. Make sure to glue the disks securely

to both the horizontal fuselage and landing gear

struts.

7. Use foam-compatible CA to glue the wheel pants

to the wheel retainers. Make sure the pants are

positioned so they won’t drag on the ground during

takeoff and landing before applying the CA.
