Thats exactly the same as my 260 except that the legs mount from underneath. After having a few composite planes(7 between me and Dad) with that setup i would highly suggest laying some carbon or glass cloth over the joins and onto the fuse. After you have fixed a few you start to realize what they need. I found with the legs mounted on top if you have a bit of a hard landing the weight of the plane pulling up on the blind nuts from the top always split the mounting plate because you are only pulling up on 4 points(blind nuts). The Carbon plate would help that. On my Giles I ended up cutting an access hatch above the plate from the underside of the fuse and glassing the whole plate in with 1200g of chopped strand mat. I left the hatch as an inspection point. I swore that if i ever had another Composite plane that mounted the gear on top I would cut a hatch straight up.
