I caught my mistake. I think you might want to look at the point on the end of the peg. It is shown on page 44 of
https://firstfrc.blob.core.windows.n...Components.pdf . It is shown assembled on page 29. You might be able to have a passive system that uses the point to your advantage so you can drop the gear without the pilot having to lift the lift.
