I-BUZZ has what I think is called a composite main gear (spar brackets aluminium, 3M Scotchply gear legs, axle brackets aluminium). I think the lot was made from Dan Diehl, but also Diehl Aero-Nautical Co. does not answer to my e-mail. The axle brackets are two fitting bolted at the leg ends to support the wheel axles.
