Thanks for the input, guys. :) I had also made a test harness for my ER-40s, in which I used an old 5 cell JR NiCd pack. I just tested it on my new gear and they work fine with the ER-50s. I needed to actuate them to ensure one of my sets was indeed a 100 degree rotation setup.

I didn't even think to look up what their manual controller was for... :confused: Now I know! Thanks Florian! On my next order, I may pick one up, just to be on the safe side!

Have a good Christmas, guys!

Got my controller within a couple days ordering from JAG RC/Electron Retracts USA
makes install/set-up very easy

I agree. That manual controller is a really nice tool for operating the retracts in situations where they need to be down in order to remove the wings but then need to be retracted for transport of the wings. The same is true when assembling the plane if the gear needs to be down to plug the wings in.

I was looking for a place to buy the controller but these links had not been posted yet, so I got a hold of Scott Marr and he gave me Greg's email address. I did not know he had a business and website.Greg replied with a link to the controller on his website, I got one ordered last night and he shipped it today. Can't beat that for service.

I did not know the manual controller was available till this thread. I'm ordering one tonight.
Thanks for the info.

Hi Spuetz

I have same M346 equipped with Xicoy LGC-15 which I believe is about the same as GS-200. I have no veering on brakes. It is actually very stable... just needs to have friction on tyres. I have set up that has low braking force and little gyro correction. I guessed these parameters last spring and haven't made any corrections since:
Pulse ratio 1/5, Steering mix 10%, Gyro mix 10%. Center 0%, Gain 100%, Gyro gain -10%

Hope this helps, Jyri

Friends, I have a set of er40 ( reversible) controlled by a GS200. One motor in one of the retracts went faulty and I ordered a new one. Its installed now, but a I face a strange problem in that retract. It is moving opposite to the other two. I have checked everything I the tr union is installed in the proper way. I did not find anyway option in GS200 to prevent this . Or to reverse one retract. Can anyone help?

You just need to reversed the plug into the slot ie red to black and black to red...it's because you have that one in reverse mode

Transpose the retract motor leads -

Unplug the two other units and cycle this one so they all are in the same position. Then plug them all in, and then they should operate together.

I agree, it is difficult to do without a control unit when installing and adjusting the retractable landing gear. ***winter***

You can solve the reverse operation of the aircraft's retractable landing gear by reversing the polarity of the JR servo connectors in your controller. Exactly as the guys say. ***winter***

You only have to reverse them (normally) if you reversed the retract from what how they were deliver, at least that’s my experience..

Hi Daniel,
yes, you need to do the mechanical adjustment first. I think the manufacturer supplies retractable gear set up to fit into the foam cutouts in the box.
The landing gear was delivered to me in a mechanical setup that could not be used for the T-1.
In the photo (above) is mechanically set reverse operation. That's fine for the T-1. Changing the settings is a matter of minutes. ***winter***
-This is why the polarity of the connectors must be reversed !-

Humm I wasn't asking.....I have no problems... ahah

I think a nose motor is reversed to a main...

I know you have no problems. :D I just supplemented my previous post to make it complete and understandable. So I hope it is ..... :) ***winter***

‘I guess just the way it was writing 😬....I installed electron in quite a few airplanes :) and I have a few more to do this winter.....I’m actually playing with the first set of NG that I see......pretty cool motors for the monster plane, going into a Pirotti G91 .....

This is a really big retractable landing gear..

Yes it’s a huge plane the gear is big and pretty heavy but does look great........with electron er50 NG and the pro controller, it will work nicely....this model is a lot of work but I’m sure the owner will enjoy it for a long time......
