Question for Rik or others

What drives are those on the Fountain. The link calls them ASD8s, but they do not have a boot and who's drop box is that?

They are ASD8 legs with a SCS drop box. A very expensive way of doing things.

But is it a good way?

Well, the scs drop box places the engines at a higher location which raises the CG, they are also heavier and more costly.

Yes the ratio's can be changed quicker, but the ASD8 drop box ratio can be changed also and is not a hard job to do.
