I need help with this landing gear. Basically it won't work
- it's not strong enough to land on and
- the back gears are glitchy (seems to be related to COM and shock absorbers)
I'm out of ideas to fix it but would like to keep it loosely similar to a Su-24 Fencers landing gear any help would be greatly appreciated thank you :)

No need lol @Frenchyfry
@Thorne Thanks! its a bit late but I will use them on my next build and give you the credit :D
I might be late to the party, wheels can be sensitive to weight and pistons are sensitive to gforce, I lightened the plane and removed a shock on each set of rear wheels (they were falling off in turns), I also made them activated by landing gear, I don’t know which way they’re supposed to go and how far, but you can change the angle and speed of the rotators to what you want, you can just replace the cockpit if this is what you wanted! Hope this helps
@Frenchyfry no problem m8
@JaeBeansS its fine think I'm gonna just use standard gears more effort than its worth at this point seems to be physics glitch causing therm to go all jiggly
@Mobius1Cyka Yeha kinda my conclusion
Thanks for having a look though
@Frenchyfry yea my efforts have been kinda fruitless, tried my best but it didnt eork sadly. Id say, if you cant fix it, XML mod normal Landing Gears just so not everything goes to waste, thats my opinion tho.
@JaeBeansS Tried it all bet still not working :l
Thanks for your help though :)
@Mobius1Cyka Thanks :D dw if u cant I've spent the past day trying lol
Currently trying to fix it
