restrictors on retracts too slow on the way up?
Hey guys
i use always restrictor in my retracts airlines...closest to the cylinders so they wont hit at the end when i lower them
plus they look nice when they move slow
..but when i retract them up
only there waith of the leg with out restrictors some times its good to slow them in a scale move
plus some times when restrictors used on the way up and you have secuense main doors they will be too late and the doors will close?
i want to share with you an idea i had so to overcome this
the use of a one way valve:
so when leg is going down the one way valve is closed and air is restricted so slow move and not a slap at the end
and on the way up the one way valve opens and bypass the restrictor so full power right away
..what you think?[&o]
forgive my poor english and my drawing skils
...im away from my workshop so no picks to upload..
thanx for your time reading this
regards
George
