I was told today that the landing gear on a RV can walk fwd and aft.  Has anyone experience this?  It was recommended to look at the landing gear for the RV8 on the Grove Aircraft  www.groveaircraft.com  web site.  It would take a new design for a RV 7 application, but I see how it would be stiffer fwd and aft.  Any thoughts out there?
 
Thanks,

Seen it on lots of Rockets with their long flexible gear, but not on RVs.
Build on...don't worry about this. You can add wood stiffeners to your gear
legs later if you really figure out a way to rationalize doing so (I didn't,
there's no need). Anything above and beyond that is re-engineering, and
you'd be going where you probably shouldn't go.
