O.K. Gang: here's the scoop on the Spektrum/JR retract issue
The folks at JR say (drum roll please) you have to bind you're transmitter to receiver with the retract switch in the DOWN position as well as your landing gear also in the DOWN position. That way when the units are switched on it will recognize the gear as "Down"
see if that helps !!

Denis,
That post should be quoted and repeated on EVERY thread of every forum in RCU!
I will do the re-bind tomorrow. It's kinda of a pain to get to it, but if that solves the problem, I will be one happy mexican. Oh, wait, I'm not mexican, that's JETMEX. I'll just be happy!
GeeBees,
You have some fun birds coming up!
I LOVE the 195. A shop I worked for when I first broke into aviation had a customer bird that won Oshkosh back in the early 80's. White & 2-tone blue, wheel-pants with cross-wind gear and a "shakey-jake" radial. Oh, it was awesome.... E-mail me pics (

I'm putting G-26ei's in the 110. I had them NIB for a 103" Art Johnson F82 that I ended up NOT returning to service after I took a hard look at it. So they are hangin around!
I pick it up tomorrow and Jetmex and I will do a dry-fit of everything over the weekend. We will start a build thread on the Twin & Multi-engine forum.
Looks like I'll be tackling the KMP Bf-110 and FW-190 at the same time, now. I hadn't planned on the 110, but Nemesis4u (KMP dealer) twisted my arm so hard, that I just HAD to do the 110.
With all of these others, I'm not finding ANY time to even really start on my 85" Bearcat that I so desperately want to do this year.
Maybe if the recession deepens a bit more, I'll have some time to put into her... Naaahhh. We don't want that! I'll just fit it in - somewhere.
If we had your weather I wouldn't be out flying every weekend - I'd be building! Choices, choices....
At 18-degrees, I think more than my fingers would be frozen if I went out in that! We have our hurricanes, fires, floods and tornados, but no snow-shovels!!!
