Hey all,
I didn't want to hijack the Simple Retract thread. Are any of you familiar with the Infinity main retract gear kits sold for canards?
http://infinityaerospace.com/product/featured/landing-gear/
The Infinity system is a hydaulic system with 3 ways to get the gear down. Any experience with these kits? I like the idea of hydraulic system even though it adds some weight compared to electric actuated gear. Cranking down the gear in a Bonanza or Baron is just over 50 less than fun cranks with a small handle behind the front seats. Awkward position and it wears you out, but at least it can be done.
Any other companies that have canard main gear kits? Have any members thought through designing a system?
thanks,
Kenneth
