Hey folks....
I really enjoy this thread. I bought the kit AFTER reading about the troubles with the retracts. I would like to see this thread remain for it's intended purpose. To share in the building and techniques to beef up the kit and make the hobby more enjoyable for everyone. To me, half of the fun of this hobby is building and taking lesson from all of you in the upgrading of the kits. i appreciate your help.
I am putting Sierra retracts, Robart struts in mine....now, thanks to the tip, I'm looking into the BVM products and hoping to find something that will work with the wing and my retract setup. ( If you which product may work...let me know)
If you want to complain about the Kit...take it to Ace & TT. Leave the Forum for the constructive side of taking a problem and working toward a solution.
I'm new on RCU, and just glad to be among some long time builders. just started flying this summer. Currently have Ryan STA 1.20, GP Lancair, UcanDo 90, Predator and Viper Pylon planes, Nextar Trainer, & now I'm putting together the Rare Bear! Have a 12' trailer set up as a hanger/field workshop. Serious about the hobby.
Thanks guys....
