This is the first point of my project (hope not last). Landing gear mechanism is almost finished, but there is still need to put some nice knob at the end of the pipe. I found it difficult to made realistic one by myself and theres no interesting knobs on the web, so I decided to leave it until I will find something that fit perfectly.
I used two PCV pipes - 16 mm and 13 mm. There are two switches working as one (normally closed, it opens when changing position of the lever). Side panels are made from 3 mm dibond. Also used 5 x 5 mm screws for side panels and one 4 mm screw mounted on the lever for pushing the buttons.
Mechanism works good and I think it look pretty nice.
