Dantley - I'm going with the CARF electric set as well. If it's painted as the pictures I've seen with the nicer wheels and brakes it should be very good. I'm looking in to whether I use servos or actuators for the gear doors so I can pretty much remove the air system all together. Andreas says servos apparently but would be interesting to know if anyone has found actuators that work for the job?
