what robart retracts did you get. I have a p-51 in a box waiting for assembly and that sounds enticing, putting the retracts in. what engine are you gona use also. I was thinking about a 25fx
These are the retracts: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMJJ5&P=0
These are the wheels: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXB935

and I am putting in my OS .40 FP engine.

Thanks Mike. I have never done retracts before so I hope you post a few pictures. I have a 40 max laying around, I guess I could use it. man that would be hot!

So, realizing this is 20 years later. Did you find resolution on the awful instruction book and get it built? I am struggling with the wings as the pictures and details are less than helpful.
