Question: My assembly manual has a picture showing one wheel collar holding the nose wheel in place and this matches the one collar found in the parts bag. However the manual mentions the use of two collars. What's the story here?
Answer: Depending on the model and the parts packing, there is always at least one wheel collar provided for retaining the nose wheel and only one wheel collar is required.
In some cases, we have also included an extra wheel collar in the parts bag in case of loss. Modelers can retain this extra collar in case they need it OR may wish to install the wheel collar on the nose gear axle inboard of the wheel itself. |
