I gave Darrell a call to ask him about filling us in on the technical side of these retracts. He said that he had been reading the posts and suspects that the existing air system from Robart or CJM should work, as this is a smaller retract than the other set ups he sells.
I believe Darrell will be posting some stats as soon as he can. He will be keeping tabs on the number of orders received so we will know when the minimum is reached.
I would really hope to have a set of his retracts on my Corsair because it's not just the additional cost for the retracts that you have to consider, but what about the down time after a "hard landing"? Even if you have a spare set of "scissor" arms to replace, you still don't get to fuel her up and fly again, because you've got to replace the damaged parts. Isn't that worth something to offset a one time cost?
Just my 1.5 cents
