    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    I think the bolts will have to come from the other side. Hoping I can make the top window an access panel and I could come from the front side but it doesn't look like I can. Mounting bracket will be fine with a bolt/ screw(s).

    Hanger 9 3.1m Sukhoi landing gear! For years Hanger 9 Sukhoi owners have wanted Graphtec to stay in business so as to order replacement landing gear. The stock aluminum gear is over 1lb heavier and way too flexible. My order was open for months, with zero communication i finally got a refund...

    More trial and error. Test run on screwing main bracket to frame. Already snapped a sheet metal screw testing elsewhere then did it again testing on the fuse. Vey fortunate to back that broken screw out. Hard to see in the photo.
