[1.1.2] Basic landing gear fixer

[wasml]

I don't know if I'm getting better at landing or if setting suspensionTransformName = wheelPivot did it but I was able to land a plane with the fixed nose wheel twice in a row without any explosions - first two times the fixed nose wheel has survived a landing in 1.1.2

Can you make this for the LY-10, make it stronger and disable default steering, @GoSlash27?

Hi GoSlash27, I am wondering if a consistent problem I'm experiencing is caused by an ingame bug? My plane keeps flipping on landing, and the landing gears are more of a hindrance than a help.

Wonder if you could glimpse at the thread I made (contains a video displaying the problem) and tell me your thoughts. Thanks =/

Just a small request, but could the link for the config file be changed to a different site, because my antivirus complains that the site is unsafe, and I would rather not take my chances with malware.

Finally, I can make a propeller plane without the main shaft going halfway through the wheel bearing!

What about landing legs? I seem to recall seeing a possible fix for those in some thread, but cannot find it.

its working on ModuleManager.2.6.25   ???

Hi, folks! Is this still needed on 1.1.3?

@GoSlash27 also this download link seems broken

@GoSlash27 The link is down.

Meanwhile, the basic fixed landing gear in 1.2 seems to be made of glass: it always explodes or breaks unless vertical speed is extremely low, which makes it useless for everything except airfields. It can't deal even with slightest stress on landing - regardless of spring, damper or rigidity settings, or if I pack a pair of them.
