This nose wheel sure seems to snap off easily, I'm on my 3rd one.

Such a well built nose shock for my P38L. Better than the other upgradable shock struts for this aircraft, with greater and smoother movement.

Was pretty easy to install, just don’t insert strut to far into the trunion, may not allow gear to close all the way.Looks strong, haven’t tried them yet. Just got them installed last night.

This is an excellent replacement for the original. Adding a low bounce tire makes it even better.

I waited a bit to write this review so I could test the new gear out. Now that I have tested the gear, I’m not sure why I waited. The gear worked flawlessly. I forgot for a minute how to install it, but it came back to me and I was able to take apart my LG servo and replace it with no problems. This OLEO gear it definitely more forgiving on landing than the stock gear.

The gear works great, except when you put force on it. Flightline P-38 is a big, realistic and beautiful airplane. and flies like the real one. But the nose gear plastic torque link is insufficient for the job. Make it from better materials, please, I'll pay the higher cost for a scale looking but stronger item. even it if has to be a bit bigger...
