Bf 109 G landing gear geometry
Hello to you all!
5 mounths ago I've bought the 2 DVDs with factory drawings of the Me 109 E, F & G variants. I have good information but not complete. I cant find information regarding the geometry of the main landing gear that I need for a 1/5 replica RC airmodel. As it's a complicated geometry I cant take it only from the drawings with no data ( it doesn't fit into the wing when it's retractd) Does anyone have the correct retracting angles and lenghts? I am searching for the 2 components (one on fuselage) and one on strunt and also the lenght of the strunt with no loading on it. Vincent |

HI Vincentiu
In this link you'll see a photo of what I believe are Brian Taylor's plans of the 109, 1/5th. http://faucheursdemarguerit.forum-ac...truction-b#340 You can search more and easily find his plans, they are among the best you can find (best flyers AND perfectly following the original shapes and dimensions). Discussed also here: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1461791 I'm building his 1/5th spitfire mk XIV, and at the moment fitting the landing gear ![]() |

Re: Bf 109 G landing gear geometry
Hello Fabrizio!
Thanks for the tips, but as I want to make a full replica I need to find some engineered drawings or at least angles and dimensions. I am not saying that the plans of Brian Tailor are not good enough but it's my pleasure to make everything from drawing to building up to flying. Most landing gears that you find on the market are ok but they are not the real one. they are simplified and have other angles. |

Snautzer! Thans a lot man.
From this I hope that I can start the cinematics of the landing gear ![]() As far as I know at G variant the wheel was a little bit foreword. ![]() I'll come back with drawings from Catia V5 where I am doing drawings for it ![]() |

Re: Bf 109 G landing gear geometry
Good note. AFAICR, the F,G ,K was 2.5 degrees forward in cant from the E.
