Landing gears need to be better than 4 G's I would say.
Six G's minimum and ten for hard landings.
That makes that kind of end-of-the-canard landing gear
too heavy. Nice try Burt but no cigar on that one :-)

Don't blame Burt, the Dragonfly is not his design.

No, but the Q2 was (I think) and the Dragonfly was patterned after the
Q2. They both had main wheels mounted on the canard wing tips
and they both had the same problems.
