Gear doors

[LukeJ]

Hello. Im trying to figure out a design for landing gear doors and cant seem to think of any. Are there any designs that don't inlucde servos, or do they have to? Can you please help and post a link or tutorial how to create one. Thank you so much.

unless you want to try something that is spring loaded and pushed open by the gear, you're going to need servos

Ok the how would you design it with servos?

similar to any other control surfaces. just set up the throws to completely open and close your doors

if you look up Ramy RC on youtube, you can see how he makes gear doors
