Re: Carbon Fiber landing gear for my qq yak
i think if you call QQ aircraft they offer a better set as a option, or graftech had them.

Re: Carbon Fiber landing gear for my qq yak
Benji,
I have had over 80 flights on mine and not even one broken prop. Work on your landings if you are breaking it very often. Try TNTlandinggears.com for CF landing gear. Just to warn you of one thing, the CF gears are really stiff and if you happen to have a real hard landing, first thing happens is you will rip off the landing gear plate, so there is always a trade off! Work on your landings, maybe you are doing lots of Harrier type landing because you shouldn't have any problem breaking a prob if you actually do normall scale landing. BTW, Are you using a 23x8 or 22x8?

Re: Carbon Fiber landing gear for my qq yak
Hi this is Kathy from TNT Landing Gear Due to the shortage of carbon that gear may be hard to find. But we have been getting many calls and making allot of aluminum gear for that plane.
 Give us a call at 419-868-5408 if you are intrested in one.

Re: Carbon Fiber landing gear for my qq yak
my carbon gear is very strong... as Reza mentioned... maybe too strong.. I usually land very softly, but just one hard one and there is no flex in the carbon gear, so you have to be careful....

Re: Carbon Fiber landing gear for my qq yak
The Graphtech, hands down. You'll gain a half-pound or so going with aluminum. I have the Graphtech (which is what Troybuilt sells) gear on my 102" QQ Yak and it is solid. The TNT gear are nice quality and are probably going to be easier to come by and are strong, but like I said, they do add weight. If you are not worried about the weight, the TNT are a good way to go.
