Retracts and brakes was created by THE BLACKBIRD







Been waiting to get some retracts for the hunter. it turned out they were going to be £700 :S :S :S so i took a chance and ordered some from HK they came yesterday
I think they are excelent quality, very well made, they are electric come complete
The mains cost 36 us dollars and the steerable nose 26 dollars
I also got some electric brakes again for the hunter, very well made again and come complete with wheels and controler @48
Also a sprung nose leg again nicely made again very cheap, in fact Mick Reeves buys these from HK and sells them in his retract set
I just need to make some oleos now for the mains Mmmmm

That's really ace BB, pity about the ding in the one tyre, was it badly packed?
Do it now, you may never get another chance

I think one of the retract boxs did it ,after a couple of my landings you wont be able to tell it from all the others, thats the only thing that could give a problem are the tyres, a bit soft
Be interesting to see how they last
