Hi I have a question what brand or retract is this and what do you think it will work on?



Thanks

Just a guess, but I'm thinking Century Jet nose gear. It should work on any plane that requires a retractable nose gear. The two lines to the cylinder are your air-up and air-down, and the third line to the wheel hub is for the brake.

Thanks. Is jet a good gear I can buy this used set for 40.00, also would like to know wher you can buy parts?

I haven't run Century before, so I couldn't tell you. My preference has always been Rhom Air.

Where can I find Rhom Air retracts to look at.

Rhom air is no longer in buisness so parts for the gear are not available unless you can find suitable alternatives those gear look like a money pit there also set up for brakes which require more plumbing, that = more areas for leaks, and problems.
if your looking for retracts spend a few extra $$ and get a new set you will avoid alot of the hassles that leaky seals and old hardware provide.

several popular types available are,
spring air http://www.retracts.com/
century jet http://centuryjet.com/index.php/cPat...17a20134f43a2d
Robart http://www.robart.com/
shindin machine http://www.shindinmachine.com/
LADO http://www.lado-tech.net/ there electric actuated

the only type I don't own is shindin machine,and spring air, shindin are mostly geared for giant scale models and I fly mostly 60 size planes the others have there advantages and drawbacks.
theres a few more out there use google.

I beleve what you have there is a mixed hodge podge. Those two on the right with single airline and bulkhead mounts I am pretty sure are Springair mains that would be used in the wing P-38 and B-26 and are not compatable with that third one.

Correction after a closer look what you have on the right are two Springair nose wheels and that third one with the surface mount is a main gear of some other gear.
