Hi, Thanks for your input re: changing my conventional gear to tri-gear.The idea of having one bracket on the stub to hold the gear was one idea and I thought that somebody may have tried it and may have some insight for me.Another idea which has been kicking around here is why not cut the spring bar in half and move it over and bolt it to two brackets. One inside the fuselage and one on the stub wing.I would think that two brackets per gear leg should be sufficient.(?) This would save me the trouble of re-engineering stick and brackets(which are already installed) to get around the centre gear leg bracket if I was to move the brackets to the rear of the spar.(which would involve considerably more work!) You might think that i'm being stubborn about using the spring bar in the tri-gear conversion but I would like to cover all possibilities before giving up on this idea.
Happy building and flying. Per Lindstrom Mississauga,Canada e-mail plst...@allstream.net
