Default Mechanical Retracts

This was a first time, so it has been a real learning experience. The struts are larger than 5/32, but less than 3/16 and a tad over 4 mm. The could be larger and several on the net have changed them. They also were floppy when down becase of loose lock-up I guess. I did figure a way, based on what another person had done, to take up the slack with chrome sticky paper. It has been discourageing, but they did work today. Thank goodness we have a 600 foot asphalt runway. I would hate to try these on grass!
