I have four planes that have retract gear and have used the Hitec HS-75BB with all four of them with perfect results. I recommend them.

All mine use the Hitec---However, I have been using mechanicals for several years. Many use 2-56 rods. I did but switch to 4-40 to avoid any "bowing effect" Much more stable this way.

I use the JR RT88 or RT66 or what ever they recommended on my H9 Hellcat. I have flown it many times with great results. It was about $30 or so.

I reviewed this plane last fall for RCU Magazine and I used a JR RT88 ($25) And it's still working great

They actually recommend the JR 791. Those are great alternatives you guys posted. I think I'll go with the RT88 ! Thanks a bunch !!
