Oh my gosh, thank you for these. Now I can stop dragging my plane's rears on the ground.

@LordofLego - the parts themselves are attached to the rotators, but I've moved them out by manipulating the (x,y,z) coordinates in the XML. The parts think the are still attached to the rotators.

@LordofLego Nope. Just build around them.

Do I need to attatch anything to the tops of the landing gear or are they connected to it already with some kind of sorcery?

@LordofLego - adding wings should be fine. The wheels just fold into them.

How do you attatch stuff to this? Or what needs to go where to not obstruct the landing gear?

OK, let me add that to my list. I've got quite a few other requests to fulfill.

@WalrusAircraft Need corrugated wings like on Junkers planes and one on the very edge of a rotator so I can use it as a door I also need a corrugated main wing and tail wing if also possible so small champagne flutes for the inside of the ju52 airliner and like a whisky glass (if possible) also only if possible can. You put multiple dials on one block to create a dashboard effect? (Don't forget a slightly smaller big wheel they are awsome!)

For smaller big wheels and "corrugated" wings for a Junkers plane and some of the places on weirded places of blocks :)

@WalrusAircraft had a feeling that would be the case but if anyone can do it you can.

@karlosdarkness - If I do that then the wheel folds up sideways.
