Good evening, Looking for KR2 Grove one piece landing gear for project. Anyone have one lying around they don't plan to use? Willing to pay fair price plus shipping. Feel free to contact me off net. Thank you, Clayton

KR> Grove gear question

There is a certain amount of camber angle to the gear to compensate for a/c weight. Does anybody have the camber angle in degrees? I'm thinking of trying to make some fiberglass maingear and I'd like a starting point for that angle if anyone can help. I'll make the gear, post some pics and test

KR> Grove gear question

Having just made my own 'glass gear, I can tell you this... It's a tedious process :-) The camber angle is based on how much deflection of the gear leg at what weight, so the answer is "it depends". My legs are 25.5 inches long (hyp dim) at a 45deg angle. I ended up with a calculated angle of

Hrmm... Well something like 40 layers of unidirectional (15 oz) and 12 or so layers of tri-ply woven (22 oz). I don't have my sketch in front of me here at work, so I don't remember for sure. They are an inch think at the mount locations on the spars, and taper down to about .7" at the wheel

Hello Net As usual, Tweety is a no show. We did not make the trip to Hartford and on to Oshkosh. In place of making the trip I have been working on the Cleveland wheel swap. I need to see a picture of the grove gear with Cleveland's installed. I want to know at what position the brake

KR> Grove gear

I was just looking at my new Grove one piece gear and seeing how the wheels and brakes would go on. I had the gear gun drilled for the brake lines. They obviously drill from the end of the legs and the 1/4" NPT thread comes out the bottom of the legs pointing straight down. In order to have the

I know how long it takes to retrofit a retract gear KR with Diehl gear. Can anyone give me an idea on how long it takes to put on a set of Grove gear? I know about how long it will take to remove the retracts, fix the holes in the wing, and install the wheels and brakes once the new gear is on.

KR> Grove gear

The grove gear can be ordered streamlined and with the hydraulic galleys pre drilled in the leg. No glassing is required as it is an aluminum gear. The only glass work that you will need to do is the fairing of it into the fuselage bottom. I think it is the most simple gear installation available.

Bernie, I love that gear and installation. Why did you choose the two piece over the single piece? See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC See you

Well, it turns out that Rand Robinson no longer sells the one piece spring bar gear that fits in the existing retract mounting bolt holes. Apparently, they had to be bought ten at a time, prices have gone way up, and the guy that used to make them has died. Looks like I am back to getting the

I've got the Diehl variety landing gear and it works very well,.With the one piece designs I would think you'd need to fair in the cross section under the aircraft. I do agree that wheel alignment will be easier since most of the work is completed coming out of the box since both side will be in
