Right, even if it were, you would not need it. I believe that the "Grove" type, single piece aluminum gear is the easiest to install although it is a bit more expensive and a little bit more heavy that the Diehl.
I see nothing wrong with the RAF48, but if I were to do it again, which I won't, I might try the new wing, and that would only be if the spars were not already installed. Have fun, but remember: There is a time for building and a time for FLYING. See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics Daniel R.
