E-flite Piper L-4 Grasshopper ARF Assembly Manual

Landing Gear Installation

Required Parts

Fuselage assembly Landing gear

Required Tools and Adhesives

Medium CA

1. Locate the landing gear. The gear will fit in the

two slots on the bottom of the fuselage. Note that

the straight edge and the wheels will be to the front

of the aircraft.

Use care not to damage the fuselage

when installing the landing gear.

2. Press the landing gear in the slots in the bottom

of the fuselage. The landing gear should fit flush

against the fuselage.

3. The landing gear will fit snugly into the slot

in the fuselage. If you do not plan to remove the

landing gear at any time then we suggest that you

tack glue it in the slot with medium CA. If you do

not glue the landing gear in, you will need to check

it periodically to make sure that it does not become

loose over time.
