Title: How to select retracts for .60 size p51
Post by: Matt Curtis on October 18, 2024, 03:29:22 PM

So I need to figure out the proper sizes retracts for a p51 and who sells them? .60 size plane I assume and want electric retracts not air.

Air systems are just a problem waiting to happen, electric retracts are the way to go. Retracts will give a range of weights of the model it can support.

Also pay attention to the retraction angle - 85 deg. 90 deg or 95 deg. The P-51 mustang would use the 85 deg landing gear
