This idea is from Norman Michaud who had this setup on his Kr2s. I'm posting
the info for builders who need land gear.
The leaf spring from 1985 Chevy astro or GMC Safari are fiberglass and make
great landing gear. They are light, cheap
and available almost anywhere. Each spring is 60" long and tapers to the middle
and will male a set of landing gear per spring.
So a set of springs is around $60.00 and makes two sets of gear. They mount on
the spar like normal Diehl gear and much cheaper.
This setup is what i'm doing with my large plastic easter eggs i'm using for
wheel pant molds.....David Boyer
