As for the brakes I'm just using the AG63 brake/steering gyro and its tied into the Xicoy LGC13C landing controller set at 2amps, the gear is retracting is slower than I would like but the gear retracted fine using a 2S 7.4v Lipo. I would use a 9.9v but I'd hate to stress or burnout the retract motors. From the time your hit the retract switch until the gear doors are closed your looking at 30secs. It's fine, I can live with it as long as it's reliable

2 F-16XLs will be flying tomorrow so I am looking forward to it.[/QUOTE]



Do the brakes hold with the JP controller? I was thinking about having my doors operate from the receiver.
