RE: P-40 Brotherhood (All P-40's Welcome) - 
Although they are very well made and operate flawlessly they have way too much play in the trunnions when extended. I could twist the struts back and forth almost 1/2" from straight to tow in. My hat goes off to Mike at WS for great customer service and for allowing me to return them even though I had modified them to except 5/32 gear. He is on the right track for developing a good product and if this issue can be resolved I would buy them in a heartbeat. I know this rotating gear is such a pain in the butt to find any that hits the right balance of quality and cost and function. On one hand you have Sierra gear weighing a pound and running $270 + 40 for the links, and then Robarts which fold up on any landing that is not absolutly perfect and all the junky mech ones out there. Theres also the issue of most of them being only 90 deg instead of 100deg on the rake. My kingdom for a pair of resonable rotating gear! O.k all you genius types out there, the world is waiting. 
I am going to see if I can install them tonight. I will post pic's along the way. Here are a few pre install pics. They are really well made of aluminum and stainless steel for the gear and the control board is small and fits inside the wing 
So are you ordering from the USA?
