none close to your. Your gear is way too tall with narrower

nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org<BR>Subject: [NSRCA-discussion] Help with my
Quest 2 landing gear!<BR><BR>I have a Quest 2 I am flying to get back in to
pattern after being gone since the '80s.<BR>After it's 56th flight today I
noticed the landing gear has begun to show cracks.<BR>A bad one at one of the
gear/fuse mounting holes and some "spiderwebbing"<BR>where the gear makes it's
bend from the fuse bottom to turn down to form the gear leg.<BR>I can order
another from Ultra RC (I hope) but I'm afraid I will be in the same shape
after another 56 flights.<BR>The dimensions are:<BR>width at
fuse - 4" approx
100mm<BR>width axle hole to axle hole - 13 3/4" or approx 350mm height from
axle to fuse 8 1/4" or approx 210mm (this is what the height would be if
a plumb was droped from the fuse bottom to the ground...not the length of the
gear leg) Rearward sweep of the gear is approx 2" or 50mm.<BR>Can anyone
suggest a carbon replacement (the original is fiberglass).<BR>I've checked a
couple of the obvious sources like Central and Bolly but no luck.<BR>Does
anyone know of a gear available from Goldberg, Great Planes, etc?<BR>Thanks
for wading thru this mess!<BR>John L.
