I think someone is using a MCR01 Ban-bi main undrcarriage. However most
MCR01s have an empty weight of around 225kg. Also heard a rumour that
someone else was doing a stronger undercarriage. Sorry I don't know who.
The MCR01 undercarriage has the benefit of being in one large piece all of
which flexes. That means you have a long length all of which bends a
little. Therfor the undercarriage can be relativly stiff over short section
but give good sock absorbing qualities.

Good day to you all
I think I heard or read some months ago that someone in Britain is building
his own version of a main landing gear ( legs ) using composite material (
carbon fiber or kevlar ) .
Has anyone more specific information on this, and where to find this
builder?
Thanks & regards
