Alan_Perse:
Fred, here are some pictures of my K8 in the area you are interested in. Not sure if they are any help.







Also, about the skid. The front of the skid is screwed to the fuselage. But the back of the skid is loose. There is a bracket to stop the loose end of the skid from moving from side to side (see photo below). The reason for the loose end is to allow the skid to move during landings. There is a piece of rubber hosing between the skid and fuselage to act as a shock absorber.

Fred:
Hi Alan,
That's perfect, thanks :).
That's the way i did the big KA3, all clear in my head now.
Also, in the mean time, found a photo of the full size underside :)
Time to cut some wood! ;)

Fred:
And some wood was cut  :mrgreen:



More next week  :D
Thanks again Alan  :D

Alan_Perse:
Nice. Is it 1/3 scale?

Fred:
1/3 scale it is indeed  :D
