Hello guys.
I am scale detailing the landing gear of my old 1/7th scale FEJ F-18F.
The main struts are pretty much done:





I have tested it in flight and improved the Dennis wheels as seen here:

I am now working on the nose gear.
I have a problem here: I cannot find any proper documentation on the nomenclature/stickers displayed on the strut. I've looked extensively on the web, have asked many decals company with no luck so far.

Here is my request: Is there anyone who would have HD pictures of the stickers/nomenclature showing on the nose strut?
I'd need pictures precise enough so I can make nice and readable sticker at 1/7th scale on my laser printer.

Many thanks in advance!!!
Oli.

Looking Good! I am working on a Tams F18 right now and need the struts and gear. Who makes the struts on your plane? You?

Thank you. Yes, I made the struts. The cinematics is completely different from the original FEJ design.
The upper main strut is not scale yet ( the lower fork is not like this on the real thing ) but I will improve it in a while ( waiting for a new CNC lathe ).
Wait to see the nose strut. It looks quite good. I'll post pictures here when I have the stickers, the hydraulic lines and electrical loom in place...

Looks Great OLI,  You know that f-18 is on my short list, right after the f-15.
