LOL, I should keep that in mind for future builds
@PsyBorg . Except knowing me I wouldn't do it on a classic plane like the Corsair. I'd probably do something crazy thing like that on a Wright Brothers model, Cub, or something silly like that.
I appreciate the insight and totally understand where you guys are coming from...almost makes me wish I hadn't sold em already. BUT, I'll go ahead and suck it up and get the rotating ones like I planned. I generally have 2 ways to how I fly...
-Nice, easy, and elegantly...OR
-crashing it into something.
I'm hoping for the first one on the Corsair obviously lol. If I stay on the nice and easy path, the landing gear will probably last pretty good once I get over any little hurdles. Besides, with my schedule and family and stuff, I'm usually weeks or even months between flights sometimes. So, with that in mind too, I'll hang on to the gear for a while.
And if I crash it hard, oh well. I'll make sure it goes out with a bang lol.
Either way I'm not going to sink too much money into the rotating retracts. Just something to get me by.
On another note, I got a new video posted of progress on the Mystery Ship:
First one on the topic and more to come as I've been progressing decently with it.
