Alfa: My 1/8" axles on the original ESM air retracts are bending more and more each time I land. I would like to "grease" my landings every time, but!! I wish I could replace those axles, still...

Have you tried Futaba servos with the D&L sequencer? I talked with Ron and he suggested to use Futaba servos.

RE: ESM 50cc Corsair

I just checked my balance using the Saito FG-57T engine and found out I will need approx. 59.6 oz. up front including flight and ignition batteries. Checked with landing gear up. Wow!

RE: ESM 50cc Corsair

I suppose you could use the back side as the front side. You may need to apply some diluted exoxy to smooth up the rough side and then sand. Then you could spray it with Testors All Purpose Spray...

RE: ESM 50cc Corsair

ARF Pros, LLC sells the original 4 1/2" wheels. They say not recommended for ESM electric retract, but you no longer have ESM electric retracts. May be a weight problem. Varify.

RE: ESM 50cc Corsair

What about the wheels on the original air retracts offered by ESM for the 85" Corsair. They are aluminum wheels.

RE: ESM 50cc Corsair

RE: ESM 50cc Corsair

If you epoxy in the air tail retract, you will no longer have access to the air lines and/or air cylinder. Anyone addressed this yet?
