Robart's new electric gear..
It appears that Robart and Down and Locked have teamed up, finally!!!!!!!!!!
According to the press release , they will be making them for 60-90 size planes.. I haven't contacted them yet to see if they are going to do the bigger stuff as well, but I sure hope so.. I need them for my TF GS P47.. Anyone talk with them about the bigger stuff and their plans??

I've got a 60 sized FW 190 just waiting for the retract market to do something like this. Hope someone has them at the AMA show in January!

RE: Robart's new electric gear..
its strange, years ago, i had a set of Kraft electronic retracts, the tri set with the decoder box, they worked great for years, until the decoder quit on me, so, i switched to air,Kraft where the only ones to develop lekky retracts, far as i know, now, full circle, should have happened ages ago

RE: Robart's new electric gear..
Problem I have is the gear i need wont be out for 3-4 months from what i was told today from Robart. I really don't want to put my build on hold, but I really want to have electric gear.. I guess I will have to think about my options...
The only thing I can see doing if I cant wait, is buying the Robart gear and sending it to D&L.. Are there any other options out there for electric gear for a TF GS P47?

I wonder if they'll be the same craptastic struts and frames....hopefully something new.

Love to see some lighter struts. Seems there is plently of room nowadays to make lighter ones.
Also, would like to see more easily adjustable for load ones.
