does anybody have the specs on the landing gear springs? i think i can get some from mcmaster carr if i knew the specs. i have some that might work left over from an old replica storch project, the weights are pretty similar. mine are totally shot having sat on them so long.
i read the post on making sure your gear will fall down, and one of mine wont quite make it. im going to take a closer look at it later today, but it swings pretty easy, i swear the hydraulic cylinder is the problem. or the gear valve. you have to hold the gear lever down a long time to even get the other one to lock.
i'll report back in after i mess with it some more. the manual pump will lock them both pretty quick. aand of course the engine pump has never failed yet, but i know it will. eventually
