I built one and installed hobbico retracts. There is no cutting to do, the retracts drop in and you drill holes for the screws. the hardest part for me was routing the push rods and bellcranks and getting everything adjusted for operation. If you use the hobbico retracts be sure to file flat spots everywhere there is a set screw or when you land the strut will turn and the plane will go over on its nose. If I had to do it over again I would put air retracts in it. You might have to do some mods and probably have to mount the air tank in the fuse and they are more expensive, but would be worth it. If you have any more questions just ask. It is an awsome flying plane. Due to a battery failure mine is RIP.
