So far I have found Robart 531 (85 degree) retracts with the cylinders on the outside (cylinders point toward wingtips and gear retracts toward wing root). Are there any other options out there for a 10# plane?

I've looked at the Robart spring down series and can't identify any, nor can I with Spring Airs. Am I just missing them? Plane is a Mooney 201 - not a Warbird for sure but I thought the Warbird guys would be most familar with retracts. The plane at 70" span is too small for the Top Flite Bonanza/Mentor retracts.

jim, usually al you need to do is disasemble the retract and flip the cam/strut mount. the question to the manufacturers is I want you to do it and verify that is works proporly after the flip.

KMP sells such a set for their SBD Dauntless.
