Default RE: Electric Retracts - Modifying existing Air/Servo-operated Retracts

Well... I was able to easily modify one of my large-scale Robart retracts to operate electrically rather than via air....

Here's the first vid..... works amazingly well for a large/heavy gear mechanism... that's a 4" wheel there... (this was pulled from my 1/4 scale A6M5 Zero).... can't wait to start working the electronics....
