Landing Gear

Been working on breaking the landing gear drawings down into the component parts. These should be fairly simple to construct.

The central tube will be about a 12" diameter PVC pipe that will serve as the form for the reinforced concrete foundation pillars.

[UPDATE] After doing some more load calculation these tubes may need to be more like 18" diameter, which will be slightly out of scale, but necessary.
