Dead ON ARRIVAL

These retracts look and feel very well made...however first test on the servo tester they opened and smoked the electronics. One gear finally moved but after that nothing worked. Sad because I was putting my aircraft together and need the landing gear to go in first. After removing the actual gear from the motors the nose gear started to work but was so slow....These are nice looking gear...just wish the motors could support the weight of the gear without burning them up. Now I have to order new ones and try again....

This product was dead on arrival.
Tested the gear with a servo tester. Front wheel moves out and in three times and stopped, right back gear moved out without signal and stopped. The third leg did not function at all.
The package looks great, suspension is working and the front wheel rotates 90 dgr. on retracting. Its all aluminium, no plastic, so it looks and feels robust.
I filed a complaint with te request to replace the set.
When I have a functional set and have tested it on my plane, I will write a second review with actual in field experience.
