    But they deploy tripod landing gear before touchdown ! - there is no landing gear installed that I can see on SN8 !
    Right, they're just hard to see. They're simply configured in a different way, not nearly so visible.

    Thanks Bill - that explains that then.
    But boy - you'd have to ACE a landing with such a small footprint - and on a level flat surface.
    Step up Dan Dare - Pilot of the Future lol !
    Interesting things to come I'm sure.

    at 27 seconds I "think" I can see them - but they don't seem to have deployed !
