Better, customizable landing gear


Recommended Posts

I know of an awesome mod called Adjustable Landing Gear, but it doesn't quite suit my needs for larger, heavier spaceplanes. The wheels don't take the weight very well and the max height of them is actually shorter than the large stock landing gear.

Are there any other similar mods for landing gear, or at least just any landing gear?

KAX has a landing gear but it's smaller.

But in my opinion adjustable landig gear is the best there is. If they can't support the weight of your plane, add more of them!

And I don't think they are too small, they have a scale slider. On max scale they are giantic!

Problem isn't that they are small in scale, but that their legs are short. Hung under the wings, they sometimes only barely clear the the belly of large planes.

If I scale them, the top part that holds them when they are raised gets ridiculously huge.

If you remove the top part you can see the wheels clipping through your wings. There is no other way to hide that.

And if you don't have enough clearance below your plane you put the gears in the wrong places. It's a bad idea to attach them to the wing because the heavy fuselage will usually sag. It put too much stress on the plane which is especially bad when landing a heavy plane.
