RE: Any experience with electric retracts?
Jerry,
I read there are vibrations that damage these retracts when you use it on two stroke motors did you notice something like this?

I haven't used the E-Flite retracts but i have used Lado's with outstanding results. i will never use pneumatic or mechanical retracts again unless I have no other choice. The electrics are the way to go in my opinion. The only ones I have had any trouble with came with a cheapo foamie from Nitro Planes. Those were worth exactly what I paid for them: very little.

I have them in a PZ p-47 ... Love them . no issuses with them at all Up ;down all day . I fly off a hard packed dirt strip , I just check them before I fly that day . Currently dropping a pair into a H-9 P-47 , with a Saito 100 up front . A little mod was needed , but no big deal .

My use of these retracts are on a Mustang 60 ARF running electric, not glow/gas. But, I have seen a couple of these 60 size birds running the electric retracts with DLE 20's in them. Jerry.
