Thanks Mark. The pointed dimensions are for 80% replica. I have another option but I don't know will it work. To get struts from IVECO STRALIS and modified them for my needs, but this is one of the options . I would like to make proper ones

yes , the original are oleo strut cover with fearing. The thing is I'm trying to build maximum close to original . I was looking everywhere for somebody to build it. My last resort is the other option.
Hi everyone ,
I'm looking for someone who can build Hydro-Pneumatic Shock Absorbers for 80% replica AVIA B-534. Can someone help me with this task :
I have done a little sketch how this need to look
Did someone know where I can get them made ?
Thanks
Actually I was thinking for BS.122 before start building Avia B.534 ,but BS is not that iconic as B.534 . Is more recognize aircraft then BS.122 . From BS.122 We had only 12 aircraft. Friend of mine build DAR-1 replica couple of years ago. Beautiful aircraft
Yes , Avia B-35/2 is a beauty . Building one going to take a lot of effort .Especially The Elliptical wing. Every profile is different . But what a beauty
The B135 was with retractable undercarriage .And elliptical wing was inspire by Spitfire . Fantasying wing . In spitfire was using NASA 2213 airfoil . I believe in Avia B35 and B135 is very similar Profile.
See I try to build a 100% neatly replica even if it is in 80% scale
I know about it but from this 12 only 5 or 6 was build . Rest of them was used as spare parts. Germans give to Bulgaria after occupation of Czech Republic . In 1944 During Training flight they came across raid of b-24 Mitchell bombers on way to Ploesti Refinery and shot down on Mitchell...
Àvia B135 was only prototype aircraft. From him was build only 5 or 6 prototypes , and also not many information for to build. I prefer The french Dewoitine D.520 . We had around 60 of them . But this will be after Bf-109.
A lot of existing ww2 fighter replicas are made from wood . I would like to use aluminium for the Messerschmidt Bf109 G6 replica . Also I will use BMW M62B35 V8 engine , Only problem is Engine has to be inverted as original Messerschmidt Bf109.
Nice job man. I appreciate your sharing photos. For the Avia I'm using Suzuki G13BB engine. We trying to build it maximum close to the original aircraft using same technology . I will try to make more photos with the progress . Also I will make a video how to build it.
