These look identical to SKY R/C retracts. Will HK have spare Oleo legs for them?
 CHOPPEZ666 11 points
Es un tren retractil bastante bueno para su precio, eso si la amortiguacion podria ser mas blanda y en los actuadores tendria que tener absorbedores de traccion... pero como digo para su precio, no esta mal, es suave y regulable.

Doed this landing gear will fit in the fiberglass viperjet?
 CHOPPEZ666 11 points
LO PUEDES USAR EN CUALQUIER APARATO, TENIENDO EN CUENTA EL ESPACIO DE INSTALACION, Y EL PESO, TANTO EL QUE AÑADES CON EL TRENRETRACTIL (QUE NO SEA EXCESIVO)COMO QUE EL TOTAL EN VUELO NO EXCEDA DEL RECOMENDADO PARA ESTE TREN RETRACTIL...

i just bought this product, is there a user manual? can somebody help?? I am not sure why there is a clip on the nose landing gear.

Thanks
 preznaca 10 points
keeps the nose straight when retracting
 Kalps 103 points
Is there any particular way to attach it? I tried with the strut connected and that interferes with the gear movement with servo. Thanks
 preznaca 10 points
it just hooks onto the steering bar maybe you are trying for too much movement the nose wheel does not have to turn very much to be effective

What Size plane do these fit. Also can y9ou use only the two main retracts without the third if you want.
 preznaca 10 points
Trike large good for a sixty size model or bigger depends on the weight of the model just leave of nose wheel if not using it

 scoobystig 5 points

Kalps  103 points - 11/18/2011
 
what wheels can i use??
 Kalps 103 points
what is a mount pin? sorry never dealt with air retracts before
simdaddy  75 points - 9/10/2011
 
what do you suggest as the best servo for this set and give the air hose specs. plz
 Basil 61 points
I have used a Futaba Mini (not Micro) Servo for years to activate the air switches. There very reliable. Better than anything else I have tried. You don't want a cheapeie that strips out that's for sure.
 scoobystig 5 points
i have used a hitec HS65mg with no problems
air hose is apporx 2-3mm internal diameter
 F100CUFFLINK 888 points
or any standard servo if you want to keep the wieght lite then go with a good mini servo and you can always adjust the throw with your end point.
 Basil 61 points
The HS65mg is good as it has metal gears but it's a micro that has 31-lbs torqu the Futaba S3115 has 38-lbs torqu though and is $10 chepaer.
and slightly larger servo but still small.

Does this system use air or spring to lower the gear?
 gman4reel 134 points
Yes it does. Air up Air down
 spitfire2010 640 points
I can't see how it needs Air to come down. There is no other nipple. I have ordered this anyhow and will confirm as it should be here on monday/Tuesday.
 spitfire2010 640 points
OK, its arrived today. Really well built (5 stars). if needs pressure for the wheels to come down as there is no spring. other than that the system is fantastic!
 F100CUFFLINK 888 points
the spring would be for them to come down in case there is no air pressure left, that is the point for haveing spring loaded. (if they are sping loaded )
 spitfire2010 640 points
Another Quality post by the infamous Cufflink chasing 20C. Didn't read the OP didnt read the answers. For Shame
 F100CUFFLINK 888 points
yea i did and there not spring loaded take a nather look
 spitfire2010 640 points
He asks if it uses a spring or Air to lower the gear. Your responce does not answer his question.
 F100CUFFLINK 888 points
the spring is for down all the time but these are not spring loaded.
 spitfire2010 640 points
*sighs*
 F100CUFFLINK 888 points
in the first post i said if they are , and they are not
 scoobystig 5 points
these require air to move in both directions
Air up and Air down

received mine today and they are brilliant. Very solid built out of aluminum and steel. Simply has to be seen to understand how solid and well built the landing gear is. I'd have no hesitation buing them again. Everything is a smooth fit with smoth travel movment.

Thanks Hobbyking.

Mechanisms comes. Perfect system, all the accessories of good quality, too big selector, slow motion regulation problem, no T connections, and no Quick connections. Massive system, can hold 7 kg, I am using P 38. I write about product quality after a few flights .... Soon (-:

Well the only thing I can say is that it will not extent if you have catastrophic air loss ....hence belly landing. Apart from the this kit is brilliant and if I get another plane requiring that size, then I will be buying another. Thanks HK.
