Beufighter Undercarriage

One of our guys is an extremely keen radio modeller and is in the process of constructing a very large full scale R/C Beufighter.

Can anyone assist re details of the undercarriage he wants to be very accurate as its large scale and wants to fabricate a realisitc looking undercarriage does anyone have any detailed drawings and or photographs we/he could boorow or have copies of to help his project.

We have a lot of drawings etc on the Blenheim but not sure if they use the same main landing gear perhaps someone out there knows ??

Here is a pic of the Beau at the Camden Museum of Aviation – the late Harold Thomas collection. Hope it helps.

😮 Full Scale. 1:1?

Is he looking for a pair of Hercules too?

Joking aside, a certain very friendly ‘Beaufighter’ from Duxford quite often frequents this forum, perhaps he may be able to offer some assistance?
