I’m looking at making up a set of tube truss landing gear legs and want to make sure I take everything (or at least enough) into account. Right now I’m at the most basic sketching stage but long story short it will be fabric covered and bungee sprung within the fuselage. I think the gear and associated attach structure needs to bear the following loads:
-landing
-taxiing
-groundlooping?
-aero drag
-braking drag
-braking torque
Sound about right? Is there anything I missed?
