NOTICE: Always ensure the retracts and wheels are installed so that there
are no obstructions when extending and retracting the struts. Failure to do so
could result in damage to the aircraft or gear.

1. Remove the wheels (A) and wheel collars (B) from the fi xed left and

right struts.

2. Remove the landing gear doors (C) and strut covers (D) from the fi xed land-

ing gear by removing 10 screws (E) (5 per side).

3. Install the landing gear doors and strut covers onto the respective struts

included with the retract kit.

4. Install the left and right struts (F) (included with the retract kit) in the

retracts (G) using the set screws (H).

5. Install the wheels on the new struts using the wheel collars and set

screws (I).

6. Remove the 10 screws (J) (5 per side) and the fi xed landing gear mounting

plates (K) from the wing.

7. Install the retracts in the wing using 8 screws (4 per side) removed from

the fi xed gear mounting plates.

8. Connect the retracts to the pre-installed gear harness extensions (L) in

the wheel wells. Push the connectors under the tape on the wing so the
retracts are not blocked.

Tip: Ensure the extended landing gear wheels have no toe-in or toe-out for
proper ground handling.

9. When installing the wing, connect the gear Y-harness to the GEAR port of

the receiver.

10. Ensure the wheels move freely in and out of the wheel wells when extend-

ing and retracting, then tighten the retract wheel collar set screws on the
struts, using threadlock when needed.

Tip: Where needed, use a metal fi le to make a fl at spot on a strut for the set
screw of the wheel collar. Tighten the set screw in each collar on the fl at spot
on the strut.

When needed, disassemble in reverse order.
