seeking advice: Retracts for a Kyosho p-51D
I'm currently shopping for retracts for my Kyosho p-51D. The guy at my local RC shop seems interested in selling me some EZ size 40 Mechanical Retracts. Well, I thought I'd put it past the professionals before I invest any money...If anyone out there has had experience with retracts in a Kyosho p-51D, I'd greatly appreciate hearing what you might have to say...

The EZ retracts work very well. Had them in a OK Zero for about six yrs till I finally piled the plane in. They're in the homebuilt in my avatar for the last four yrs. No problems whatsoever.

Sorry about the sluggish reply...I've been away for a few days. With regards to balancing the Kyosho p-51, I'll check the manual when I go into work today and let you know ASAP....
