Default RE: Retract setup


ORIGINAL: Qld Flyer

Well I've finally had time to get them installed and seem to have the servo set up correctly as they lock at both ends of travel however there is a lot of freeplay in them. When extended they move around 10mm side to side. Is this normal or is there a way of adjusting that out? I don't know what brand the retracts are as they came with the kit.

Thanks

Shane

Hmmmmm What brand retracts? In a Seagull ARF.....

I wound up with 3 different "brands" of 40 size retracts for the Warhawk. Trying to find some that were worth using and worked on a dihedral wing and turned the right directions. Turned out all of them had the same "reinforced nylon" (some kind of hardish, dark plastic) bodies and innards. All had some play and no adjustments. They all measured the same but came from different "mfgs".
