Default Airtech Germany Electric Retracts

Is anyone using these electric retracts from Airtech? Looking for opinions from users of these gear. Good? - Bad?

They are not available as of yet, I had been on the waiting list for almost 9 months last year and gave up.

Really happy with version 2 of the Bheotec C-50 gear, they use a gear box and stepper motors, very smoth and very strong, highly recommend, altecare.com has a tripple set for around $535.00

Yes.
I was looking at these Airtech because they would be a direct drop in for my setup.

Thanks for the info.

electron retracts are not the same as airtech retracts, here is there site (only available in German so use chrome/google translator):


http://www.airtech-germany.de/epages...ts/12019e-gear

Peter Ayache from Altecare is a dealer for airtech and I had tried for 9 months to get the electric versions of there gear for my Jacknife Jet.... no go. Manufacturer kept saying its not available and still needs more testing done.

At this point I would recommend going with the C-50 Electric Gear from Behotec, the strongest electric gear currently available, 3x better than downlock or lado tech and 2x as better as electron.
