AeroVantage ~ Landing Gear
Overview:
Notes:
To eventually be moved.Consider locating the main landing gear in the same area as the transition mechanism; between the fore and aft motors.
The landing gear might extend and retract in conjunction with the transition mechanism.
Doors might then enclose all, thereby creating an aerodynamic shape for cruise.
Move outboard supports to under wing's spar, thereby reducing moments on wing.
This may involve moving the single nose support to a tail support, however, landing in the hover configuration probably dictates that the plane of the craft and its rotor disks be level.
