I have a workable bracket for attaching the gear leg to the main spar drawn in solidworks. I ordered a set water jet cut and am waiting for delivery. I've done a few simulations in SW to test for buckling and dynamic load, but not having an engineering backround I don't have a great deal of confidence in the numbers I've picked out. Can anyone toss out the applicable forces for the landing loads applied at the axle? I'm also needing to choose between SCOTCHPLY and 7075 T651 aluminum for gear legs and have a source and pricing for both. With axle brackets from tracyobrien.com and AN hardware, I'll be ready for my retrofit. Glad to send copies of drawings, just let me know off line @kstolham...@gmail.com and specify format.
