I'm building my TF Corsair 60 with the CJ's I got a great deal and could not pass it up. I had done alot of researched have a thread running on this http://www.rcuniverse.com/showthread...hreadid=450970

None of the other gear manufactures (Spring Air or Sierra) are willing or planning to fill this void.

The CJ's look stout enough but as mentioned they are not as good looking as the Robarts. The CJ's are also a VERY tight fit. Mine are mounted as far forward as humanly possible to prevent nose over and have a good scale location on the ground. I may not be able to have gear doors because without the 100deg rotation they don't recess as well as the Robart's. I'm using the Robart variable valve to slow down the movement and IMHO that's a must.

Finally, as mentioned I agree that the final weight of the plane will ultimately determine how the gear will hold up. Lighter is better. However I'm still planning on putting an RCS140 up front

Any news on a better retract or upgrades that can retrofit are welcomed. Petee
