    Ian welcome to the group..
    now we should call it the Zenith ANZAC group.
    You should get the other Zenith builders over there in the land of the long white cloud to join as well.
    Chris.

    Hi Ian

    I was just doing my morning perusal of this site and saw your pics so I decided to have a look. On close inspection, I noticed that you have the composite gear so I looked at the rest of your pics to get some more info but could not find any. Is your plane a USA or a European ULM variant? Either way, do you have some installation photos and details of your composite gear and brakes that you can share. Many of us guys have wanted to install the Comlet composite gear to regain some useful load and a more forward C of G but no one has shared the structural mods for a two piece gear install with us.

     

    Many thanks and Merry Christmas
