Root,
The landing gear does have a 'bungee' set-up, but not like you'd think. (see pic) It has some fake bungee covers attached to the LG, but they're not pictured in the manual. Depending on how much I like this plane, I may spring for a Wallace functional gear for it.
I've got a 90* adapter for my 100, but I haven't found a suitable way to to make it work with a bracket. I guess I'll get to cutting for the pitts muffler or stick an 82 in mine. This has been the biggest reason I put it on the back burner.
I'm also going to beef up the servo tray in mine. The factory set-up may be ok, but I'd rather add some peace of mind. However, I'm happy with the over-all quality of this ARF. It seems to be well constucted.
At the rate that I've been going on this one, you may very well get yours flying before me, LOL.

Cheers! BH
