[DestroyTheseWalls]

[808FlyBy]

do you know if they make something to plug in to your radio that can run down the edf like a scale jet? im sure i saw something a while back .. or did i dream it.

where can i buy this landing gear

[TarikuKunn]

ok now you need to do the bay doors for the gear

[gijs01061993]

it looks nice and works nice but i wont trust it on my plane it looks way to unstable

[qwertylockley]

NICE

Sorry, you actually main 6.5Ls, not 6.5ounces , right? Thanks,

[PcKSnipE]

Err i think 6.5 ounces is actually pretty heavy

[gurubomb]

its really slow, anyway to make it faster?

[sonicrcmodel]

It work like scale speed, The speed can be increased by higher voltage input from control box DSR-C100, the system operation voltage range from lowest as 4 volt to highest as 10 volts. no excess is allowed. Usually, set-up a small and light weight battery pack like 7.4V; 800 mAh 2 cells LiPo for this application is recommended. It can make retract system works not only faster but also more consistence.

why you need it faster, the purpose of this retratcs is to look real, slow, like the real aircrafts, come on.

Alright, I'm seriously considering buying these retracts for my Sapac composite T-45. The rear landing gear look incredibly long- longer than the front gear. Thats perfect for an F-14 but not for a T-45. Is there a way to adjust the length of the rear landing gear?

[wlollpop]

OOOH shiny i want one

[mdmerc11]

COOL!!!!

[rokketfilmzsociey]

thats not more scale and air is alot better

[FlyRC0]

Why would I use these power retracts over air retracts? I would save the power for the plane and use air for the retracts.

What is the benifits of these retracts over air?

[sonicrcmodel]

Power use for these is neglebible since they only use about as much juice as 3 extra servos when in use.

Benifits over air:

Ease of installation and lack of having to route air hoses. No need for air tank. No gear operation failure due to air leaks. More scale look on gear up and down. These all have spring loaded struts to absorb landing shock instead of wire struts on micro retracts.
