Anthony, 

I have two sets of full compression molds completed for two piece landing 
gear. One sets the plane approximately 7 1/2" inches off the ground with a 2 
1/2" wheel and the other approximately 9 1/2". That is, the bottom of the 
fuse is set  this much off the ground. The first set accomodates 16" props 
and the second at least 18", on typical pattern planes.

These are carbon fibre gear primarily, are fully airfoiled, and come with the 
axle nuts pre-installed in the moldings. The typical  weight is approximately 
50 grams each leg. The typical finished, RTF weight is in the 3.5 ounce per 
side range when matched with a lite pant and wheel. 

I will be making a mold of the pants to match also, by early next year or 
sooner if I can get to it.

Let me know if you need a set.
