The Eagle has legs! The one assembly I made was simply copied to the other side pods. The footpad is moveable as are the link bars. However, at present each part has to be moved seperately but I still hope this can be automated using Xpresso before the model gets completed.

When painting gets finished I can give the each of the landing gears a bit of variation by swapping some of the footpad detail around. There are polygon selection tags for each part so they make it much easier to move selected polygons around ie: The paper labels 'stuck' to the footpad.
