Correctomundo Tim,
The gear needs to be in the relaxed or "flight" position to align the fairings, but I hear Deems is putting hydraulic actuated, electrically controlled gyroscopic stabilized fairings on his to adjust for adverse yaw and to center the ball in cruise, all tied to that mast thingy he was talking about six months ago. Just a rumor though...from the Skunk Works.

You mean Deems has given up on the retractable gear??
I recently saw photos of an RV8 with builder designed retractable gear,
supposedly now flying.

Sure makes the gear leg fairings and wheel pants easier to install!
Although I'm not sure it's a fair trade in the amount of work.
