For anyone who has built one of these ARF's, was wondering about the retracts. Did you:

Use the iner liners that came with the kit? And if you did, what did you do about the linkage?
And if you didn't, what sort of treatement did you give the wheel wells?

How much clearance around the wheel do you need to ensure smooth operation?

What did you do about the servo mounts? I assume they're supposed to sit flat on the bottom sheeting, but mine are a bit short. I'm going to build up the bottoms with a strip of balsa to give them a little more height. I don't want to sand down the center rib, as it will reduce the already tight space for the retract servo. Or should I mount the servo up higher? If need be, I suppose I could just put a couple hardwood blocks on each side of the mount to raise it up....

Sorry, if it isn't apparent, this is my first model with retracts.......

Andy
