Does any have experience with this system of mounting the Full Lotus Floats using your existing landing gear? What are the pros and cons over more traditional approaches?

Yes: I have mounted both Full Lotus and Puddle Jumper floats on my model 111. Makes mounting very easy but I found the floats were too close together. Dipped a wing in the water a couple of times while turning. Have floats off now for painting and will remount with proper rigging. Have pics on my profile of my plane on floats. Cheers.
