thierry laurent Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Hi Mark. You should specify in which status: extended, partly compressed or fully compressed (loaded plane) as this was obviously quite different and explains the strange stance of some kits.

Markjames1968 Posted May 6, 2020 Author Share Posted May 6, 2020 good point, ideally both i suppose, its not for a plastic kit, its for a 1/4 rc model, i need to ensure the ground clearance looks right when they down and they sit in the gear bays properly when up, uncompressed length is i suppose more important as stance can be achieved with spring tension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airscale Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I have a crappy scan of an original drawing but the dimensions are tricky to read, and the part of Arthur Bentleys drawings that deal with the legs - posted under fair use hopefully you can derive what you need from them Peter MikeMaben and D.B.
