Help me out om this one fellas, who makes white metal landing gear for the Trumpeter 105? I would like to look at several different ones if only I could get some manufactureres names.
I was just on spruebrothers.com and they got a set for the 1/32[:)]
Scale Aircraft Conversions makes them but they only provide the main gear.
Here Is A Link to them on Meteor Productions web site. I am using these on the Trump F-105D I’m building.
Aeroclub Models makes another set. No picture, but Here Is A Link to them on their web site. I used these on the Trump F-105G I built last year.
The ACV220 set of metal gear at Meteor is very good. It includes all three gear legs as well as the main gear wheels. you have to use the tires from the kit. All three gear legs need to have molding lines cleaned up and would benefit from additions such as hydraulic brake lines, etc.
The metal main gear legs are essential since the plastic ones in the kit are not strong enough to support the weight of the finished model. The metal nose gear is not essential, but since it is included in the AM kit, why not use it?
