These retracts will not work. They are non-rotating. As of yet E-Flite has not made a rotating retract yet!

Lado makes a set - http://www.lado-tech.net/proddetail.php?prod=RS333RB


These are also available but not sure of the quality!

Also, I installed a set of these in an FW 190 .60 sized warbird. I would not recommend these retracts for any aircraft with an engine. The limit switches in mine were destroyed by the vibration.
Even though they do not state this, I think these retracts were designed for electric aircraft as well.

mimoore67: Okay, I thought they would rotate 90 degrees since Horizon put "90" in the description title, thanks for the clarifiaction! I did look at the Lado gear and it does look real nice...I was just trying to cut down on cost, that's all.

vertical grimmace: Thanks for the input.

Is Lado back in business? I know 2-3yrs ago or so he was going to sell the rights or having them produced by another manufactor or something like that.
