Default Skygate Hawk

Hi All,

I just received my landing gear for my Skygate and noticed the rather large nipples. They appear to be 2.5mm to 3mm ID, were as the standard line is 1.5mm to 2mm at best. What air lines are you guys using or recommend for the bigger cylinder nipples. This also creates another problem were as the valve nipples are also small, so going with larger line may also have a negative side affect. Help needed!!!!

Thanks in Advance!

I always use 4 mm festo tube.
And the Jet-tronic valves are also made for 4 mm festo tube.
No problem at all. Only don't use 3 mm tube. it restrict to much
( thisare the outside diameters )

Hello,

yes, allways use Festo... also from Festo you get 4-3 reducer so you can work with your valve and fillers...
