RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build
Century Jets carry electronic sequencers too, as do these people:

Haven't really given the cockpit too much thought yet. I'll probably just scratch build it as most kits on the market seem to be pretty naff quality vac formed stuff.
I'm got Robart retracts in my T-Bolt and they work fine. The CJM units appear to be better value though and they're made specifically for his kit, hence why I chose them. The retraction angles, oleo legs etc are so much better.
Must stress Bull51, that the difference of wheel location between wire u/c legs and proper oleos is large. Using wire gear such as Robart supply as standard wont get your wheels even close to the scale locations so the inner doors aren't worth bothering with. This is the case with my T-Bolt which I really regret now. It's going to be stripped down and repainted so I may swap the struts then and reskin the wing with closer-to-scale wheel locations. Unfortunately the TF P-47 has the main spar run right through the scale wheel well so is never going to be correct.
