• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Thanks Bill,

I got the compressions working now on the mains, need to test the nosegear now. The upper left gear strut now refuses to come down and play nicely with the other parts, I am looking into the issue...gotta remember that this is my first try in gmax and I must say that I am learning this quite good:ernae: I don't know how you guys do it with this program, some sort of separate brain or super power...LOL!!!

Make sure that the Local Coordinate Pivot is aligned with world and that the TCB controller is used.
 
Landing gear fixed and ready to roll. Now to adjust the contact points so the main wheels are actually touching the ground.

A big thanks to Milton Shupe and Hairyspin for all the advice and tricks in getting the gear to finally come down, couldn't have done it without you 2 fine gentlemen.
If you guys were close by, I'd buy you a cold one:ernae:
