The main wheel diameter is in post #1 of this thread, I see I didn't publish the nose wheel diameter, I will need to measure and post that.
As far as Electric retracts, FB has stated they will provide as an option; however; I do not have any experience with them.

I ordered a Dolphin through Jet Central and wanted to make sure I had the parts in hand to finish when I return to the US in April. I live most of the time time in Hong Kong. I like the Intairco electric brakes and wheels but they do not make a 4 1/4 inch main, only 4 and 4.5 so probably need to make some measurements once the airframe arrives. Again thanks for the help.

Update, Catherine send photos of the factory supplied fuel tanks, trailing link retracts, and the new fuselage and wing LG wheel wells without gear doors.
The view of the center section wheel wells shows the hatch cover in place on the left side of the photo and the cover removed on the rights side.
With the cover removed you can also see the CF reenforced rib sections that was suggested for the LG mounting.
That should now stand up to my style of landings.... I have been called Maj. Slammer Lander by some!
