Got the gear door material ready, shape matches the fuselage shape perfectly so I’m happy with the result.

Making gear doors functional, the main rear doors was a challenge but I think I got it working right and totally effortless just using a metal rod and some plastic swivel bracket, the front doors are not fully scale because the full size has 3 doors but this will make it easier and drag less .

Sorry
