Guys

I am working on a pretty cool project which I am in need of drawings for the Aluminum spring Grove landing gear. Any of you have that?

That's the gear the Model 7 uses.

Thanks
Alex

Yeah I have seen this one. I am looking for more detailed drawings which includes the 2 attachment pieces to the airframe, axel holes locations and diameter of the curvature of the leading edge of the gear.

I will reveal more of the project here once I can perform the majority of the simulations. But need to model the gear properly before that.

Thanks
Alex

ha good luck, I think if kitfox wanted you to have that info they would sell plans.

There's no secret. I am not interested to know how they do it. The product is out there and anyone can measure it. I just don't want to take my gear apart to get those numbers if they are available somewhere with installation instructions.

Who wants to steal anything in aviation anyways? Specially landing gear, please, there's no money there...
