Scott,
Agree. But this is not scale LG. It is F104 LG installed in 1/5 F16, because LG still in development. Likai will design a VERY scale 1/5 F16 LG that will make F16 "sit" correct. The 1/6 is also not "sitting" correct and very low compare to the full size...

I figured it was not the production gear but just wanted to emphasize that the correct stance is a very important scale feature not to overlook. The smaller sizes all squatted and it drives me nuts! Hate to see a nice model ruined with squatty stance. No one has done it correctly so far except Scale-Jets.
Looking forward to seeing it completed! Looks as if it is being adequately tested as the F14 was!

The forward angle of nose strut and wheel size are measured from a full scale F-16.
The forward angle is 20 degree and wheel size is 457mm (91mm in 1/5 model). The tire will reach 91mm when inflated.
here are pictures for Likai checked the LG of F-16 full scale

I want another F-16, and I might be able to afford the jet but will have to wait a few years and save up for the gear Any ball park estimate on what the kit may cost with everything?
