Default Retracts in TF warbirds

Dru,
I have built almost all the TF gold kits plus the old red box p-51 & p-40. Each time I used CJM retract except once in my AT-6 I used Robart (BIG MISTAKE). What I have found is that all the TF kits you must beef up the wing ribs ,retract rails and LE around each retract site. You can do this when your building OR after your first less than perfect landing. The CJM retracts do at times have a problem or two but the service at CJM is great and the product is tough, tough, tough! vs the cheap plastic that always breaks in the Robart 1/7 scale product. Just my thoughts, Good luck
