169 mm oleo legs ordered, they will arrive during next 3 weeks. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...9mm_2pcs_.html
I need 160 mm, so no problem for me make them shorter.
I decided for the plastic retracts. Because the HK said, this retract is suitable for planes up to 12 kg. I´m sure, this Spitfire will be up to 10 kg, so the lower weight retracts will be better. The retracts are already fitted in the wings. I´m thinking about the wedge the rectracts and get the wheels 20 mm forward.
