Testing Undercarriage

Well, something I've to check if it's buildable is the undercarriage. It's my first design this type of planes so I'm a bit afraid. Parts can look fantastic on Rhino but build them is another history. It's not fair expose the poor beta tester with something unbuildable

It's a quick and dirty build but the shape seems OK:

One very important point is the builder can achieve the correct shape, I'm happy because the I think the build is close to the shape on the right:

Some part is reversed, the cut goes in the other side but to check the general shape is ok.
I'm was a bit concerned for the undercarriage strength so I put some reinforcements in the interior. I need a ajust the size a bit but it's look good to me:

Finally I think the undercarriage looks good. What do you think ?
