heavily modded ft Warthog.

Hey all, you guys might have seen my questions about what motor to use for edfs on the warthog.
I am hoping to have brakeable retractable gear, twin edfs, rudder, fowler flaps, and maybe a steerable nose gear.
I will probably just be asking questions about stuff that I dont know about on this thread.

My first question is about retracts. what is a good size of retract for the warthog? and does anyone know a way to make a steerable and retractable nose gear?

Thanks!

not sure what size to use, but you should easily be able to get steerable nose gear that retracts

There are links to all the parts I used on my modded A-10 in this video description:

The link didn't have the retracts. do u know which ones will work with the brake system?

Oh sorry, I thought I put them on there. They are the same ones I used on my F-4 Phantom-II:

I don’t remember off hand, but if you look at the gear legs MotionRC recommends it should tell you the diameter.
