Landing gear on P-38?

[herbertjalarcon]

Greetings! I have built well over 20 ft planes, and most of them I've installed landing gear. I just finished a P-38 and I was to install landing gear, but I'm not sure of the best method...any Ideas/links that could help would be most appreciated!

In the “is this the right warbird for you” on the ft tech channel, they showed some clips of the P-38 with optional landing gear, so you could try something like that. It seemed to be a really good design and I hope they start selling it on the store soon.

@Splinter189 do you know if there is actually an optional landing gear kit for this? i have seen something in this video but can't find any link?

I have decided to build this as my 1st master series and have no desire to try to hand launch this beast.

Hand launch for a bird this size isn't hard. The Sea Duck was similar in size, and I had NO problems hand launching that sucker. Considering that the P-38 uses the same motor packs, it should be very similar, I would think...

I believe it can be done but i want to do touch and go's. I was just checking since it has already been done and looks like a lot of fun from the video.

greeting,
I have built so far about 5 FT planes and this is going to be my first Master Series. I am trying to find the landing gear option for the MS P-38 that is shown in the video but cant seem to find it? Any ideas?

Here it is. It's surprisingly hard to find.
