Hi  

   

After reading the posts of some builders who inadvertently enlarged the hole in the gear mount, I can sympathize after looking at the plans. They are vey misleading especially when considering that the hole in the gear mount (at least mine is) is undersized.   

   

Can anyone tell me where in the plans we are instructed to enlarge this hole? From what I can see, it should be at least 7/16 to take the AN4 fitting.  

   

Inquiring minds need to know.

Hi Les,  

   

I’m the guilty one for initiating the initial thread.  And yes, the plans are still confusing and I know what I’m doing at this point.  J  

   

The hole in the landing gear mount was probably drilled correctly, but the powder coatings has shrunk the hole.  The correct hole size is 7/16” in the landing gear mount and 5/8” in the bottom skin.
