Thanks again for your contributions. It seems the GP mains retracts are either a very clever (but inferior) copy of the EZ SUPRA branded product, OR that EZ have recently switched suppliers for their retracts to the same manufacturer that GP source from. I do hope it's not the latter!

I will order the EZ SUPRA 40 II mains retracts from my LHS or if they can't get them, then from MRC direct. I have heard the new EZ ARF's have the SUPRA retracts already installed, as they should be. I am glad they work well and stand up to use on grass strips.

I'm off to a wing deconstruction session with my pattern flying buddy (mech. retracts whiz) who will try to sort out the bellcranks on the @#$%*^! twist and turn retracts on my last ARF purchase - a WM P-40 Warhawk. I'll be polite and say that these WM mains are definitely not the greatest retracts ever to see the light of day.
