Title: Recommended lean on landing gear?
Post by: TheBum on October 20, 2017, 09:43:36 PM

I’m at the landing gear install step in the build and I noticed that the struts have a lean to them. The manual says nothing about which way is recommended. Can anyone shed some light?

There's a picture on the last page of the manual under "complete model" that shows them pretty good.

I see that now. I’ve been mostly ignoring that page. Thanks!

Yeah, it's a pretty subtle angle and it's a lot easier to see looking directly at it from the side, for sure.
