Landing Gear Doors- Help Needed!

[heyjoe]

Hi everyone, i need help! Your valuable inputs is greatly appreaciated.
My friends and i are building a plane and we have questions about landing gear doors. (3 doors altogether)

How do i go about operating the landing gear doors (tricycle type) with just one servo? Is it possible? I have a weight constraint..

Im not using pneumatics, instead im using mechanical means.
What should i connect to my servo (if 1 servo is sufficient) to operate the doors?

Thank you!

Dont use separate servo, just use the main struct to activate the door during opening and closing. If the door stay open when the gear is extended, it is a lot more easy. However if the door closes after the gears extends, an array of mechanical cam and linkages is neccessary.
