I like the color/trim! I also like the landing-gear. We're probably the minority there.. but "real airplanes" have wheels. You can also functionally-trim the balance with different weight wheels... rather than adding useless weight to the nose or tail.

Those wheels look nice! I like them a lot! Where did you find those? You mentioned getting the gear-wire from Cox International.. but I doubt that the wheels were included.. because I see that they're retained by set-screw-type collars. Another trick you can apply "if" the model is tail-heavy.. is to remove the gear-wire and bend the legs forward a "little bit" in a bench-vise. This will place the weight of the music-wire struts "and" wheels a little further forward. Music-wire is HEAVY... and a slight-forward-angle can make a BIG difference in weight-distribution on a model as small as this one. Your struts are currently at 90 degrees to the fuse.. and could be angled forward quite a bit. This can also help the model to "roll-out" when landing.. without nosing-over.

I also LOVE the solid lead-out wires! Old school... All of my C/L models have solid-wire lead-outs. I bought a "tube" (x50 pcs..) of K & S .015" (.38mm) wire for future 1/2A C/L airplane builds. I'll probably never use it up in my lifetime.
