They are designed for the planes exactly as the advertizing says in size...

e.g. their BF109

That is a heavy plane when assembled.

has anyone ever tried these retracts?

Is there a question missing here?

They are standard 1.20-160 sized retracts with metal base components.

The air actuators work reliably.

The air pump fitting is for a presta valve.

I wonder what a presta valve is. I like using schrader valves for filling.

Opinions vary on which is the better valve type; the Schrader is far more prevalent in automotive applications and most compressor fittings are designed for Schrader valves.

Your point?

The retracts come with a Presta fitting, personal preferences not-with-standing.
