Hello
Today I have been busy trial fitting my gear sockets. but I have got a problem
and wondered if anyone has experience this during building and how they have
overcome
it?
After taking my time setting everything up as per the build manual I inserted
the
gear legs and sockets into the holes clamping the axle's in position against
angled bar with the axle center line on fuselage station 70 and the axle end
36.75' from the fuselage center line. With all this set up the socket flanges
are approx 13 - 15 mm of the fuselage.
I tried altering the fuselage underside to ground height but this made very
little
difference to the distance between socket flanges and the fuselage. I managed
to get the gap down to approx 5-8mm by reducing the fuselage underside to
ground height to 395mm, this is very different to the 413mm quoted in the build
manual.
I have attached some photos showing the gap between sockets and fuselage and
also
the position of the socket tubes within the baggage bays when inserted.
Any comments or solutions to my problem would be much appreciated.
Many thanks for taking the time in trying to help me find a solution to the
problems
I'm experiencing.
Kind regards
Donald
