Name this retract
Mystery nosewheel retract, Old age has done her in. The glide channel that operates the strut has broken in 2, I may try to mend it, but I was curious as to the origins of this retract system. I have not seen any made of plastic like these.

RE: Name this retract
hi
my guess would be it looks like old carl goldberg retracts. I have a set unused, think they are rotating and also a three gear set unused.
good luck and happy flying

RE: Name this retract
Anyone have a set for sale, or see one, I would greatly appreciate a link or contact info. Thanks guys. I did manage to hot glue the nosegear in the locked down (or Green) position and its still going strong. But I would love to watch it wizz in front of me with all three up

RE: Name this retract
hi

I have a 3 gear set unused for $30.00 and a 2 gear set <main gear> and will let both go for $50.00 including shipping. tried to embed pixs but got message file too big. what size is necessary for embeding in message? so I finally got them loaded into gallery. they are listed as landing gears either 3 or 4 of them.
let me know
