Nitro Planes Airfield 1400MM T-28 Problems with retracts in Air

I have had problems with retracts since new. I'm using a Spektrum DX6i with gear servo at 100%. Retracts will open 4 of 5 ttimes on preflight. Retracts never work in air. Had two flights landing with one gear down. I disconnected gear servo and fly with gear locked in down position. The plane flys great and love flying it. New to hobby and find instructions that came with plane and radio little help solving problem. I'm trying to get help from Nitro Planes. But I have learned more about this hobby from internet. and youtube.

@grendelsniper. I would highly recomend this plane. As you can see in the video I had problems with retracts in July. The seller Nitro planes took the plane back and sent me a new plane. With this new plane I have had no problems at all in over 30 takeoffs and landings. I love this plane it is a great flyer, Ck out my last video I posted a few days ago. " FMS T-28 1400MM Great flying plane"

@Randyus100 Nice video..Glad Nitroplanes sent you a new plane. I have had some issues with my T-28 retracts as well. I found out never to replace one of the retract door servos with any other servo except a 9gram ordered from Nitorplanes.. Anything from local hobby shop will overload the BEC and the gear will not function properly with sequencer..Had to belly land once with no damage to learn that lesson...

@MrVerno1960 This plane now has over 150 Landing on it. I take it apart every two weeks to keep the gears clean.

Just got mine, retracts are good but I had a bad servo in the flap. Still waiting on them to arrive. The first ones sent were the wrong ones. Nitros quality control isn't great, but their tech support is really good.
