Hey guys,
Im looking for some advice on picking the right retracts, and finding the right retracts for my next rc jet project. I am doing an EDF F-14. It is 56" long 58" wingspan and will be running 2 90mm EDF on 8 cell lipos. Im estimating the RTF weight to be 10-15lbs. Where can I find a decent set of retracts to handle this weight, has oleos, nose wheel brake (or two nose wheels if I were shooting for scale)
Problem is I never built retracts into any of my planes untill now. Ive flown and built jets that have all been bungee launch or 23% 3D gassers with fixed gear. I'm not really sure how to size a set of retracts not to mention incorporating gear door mechanisms into it. Im also unsure how many degrees of retract I need, 75, 90, 105.... isnt helping me make a decision
Any advice in this area is greatly appreciated, once I can find the right retracts I can dig into my build.
