Well.. after a few nights of working on this F-100. All the wiring is done and ready to be power tested.The landing gear that comes with the Kit is just rubbish, its flimsy, week and wobbles all over the shop. I re-inforced it and was going to try it out. I hooked up the servo tester and 6V life batt.. the servoless retracts didn't like 6V and one went up in smoke.... bugger, I tested them before with no issue!! Just wish I had room for my lander full metal ones! .. I'm going to have to re-think this landing gear option.... No maiden this weekend.
