Myne is still in the box. I've been thinking about getting the gear converted to electric. Has anyone done this. I've got a DX18 so would do the gear doors electric. Less plumbing

Both the airframes I built we omitted the inner main doors and just installed the strut doors. The fronts where air with a clippard valve actuating them the mains are a real pia to setup save yourself some grief. There isn't a ton of room up front for e-cylinders iether so stick with air. You want to shim the nose gear down abt 1/4-3/8 " as well to change the stance on the ground. If you don't it will pop off on rotation which could be nasty.
