RE: SKYRAIDER LOVERS

I think the sierras are the same size as the robarts, so I think it should not be a problem. Do you have the sierra retracts website address so I can look at the dimensions and make sure it fits?

RE: What airplane would you like to see kitted at .40 or .60 size?

RE: What airplane would you like to see kitted at .40 or .60 size?

All doable...I like that Lockheed electra! It's doable, but going to give me issues with the landing gear. Maybe I'll have to slightly increase the size of the nacelle to fit the wheel, tank and...

RE: What airplane would you like to see kitted at .40 or .60 size?

you're so funny :D

If its hard to design, it probably will be just as hard to build.

Actually, maybe it won't be so bad in a 60 size...Maybe there's a way to do a different type of retract...
