The kit nylon T-mount really isn't worth the trouble.  Anything resembling a rough landing will completely fold the landing gear wire back, and it's pretty easy to break the entire nose off.  Build the front end up like a Skyray or similar with a 1/8" ply or 1/4" ply firewall and 1/2 balsa supports, it'll be much more durable.  If you need a landing gear, I'd recommend bending a new gear from 1/16" wire and install it the same as most profiles thru the wing cutout.  The nylon mount lasted one flight on the Baby Ringmaster I learned to fly on. 

...Hope to build all 4 ringmasters (1/2A; JR.; Super JR; full size) and paint them all the same.  Be fun to show up at Ringmaster fly in with the four.

I may convert the nose to a standard profile mount.  The TD 051 I plan to use has regular motor mounts.  I can then use a standard tank with pressure from the TD pressure tap.
