RE: UMS Evolution Radial Care and Operation
the Corsair is 36 1/2lbs. ( it was 35lbs. with the saito 450 in it), it has the air Robart retracts which work fine, but you are right there is some weight to that cowl, I will have to recheck the balance before the first flight.
but, as to the electric retracts, I was referring to is my friends EMS Corsair that I test flew had the electric retracts in it, EMS has a newer version upgrade to their retracts and you can preset the speed and cycle time as to which gear comes up first etc. my friends Corsair gear was so slow you could retire before they came up, anyway they worked great.-Steve
