Graphtech CF gear

[hillmanr2]

I received my new Graphtech CF landing gear http://www.graphtechrc.com/ for my H9 27% 260 yesterday. The craftsmanship in my opinion is superb. It has a nice amount of flex to absorb a less than perfect field. The CF is nice and thick to the bolts then thins a bit in the middle of the fuse where extra strength is not needed.
Best of all it cost 72.34can vs the 77.99can for the H9 stuff.

The h9 cf gear is bad as it has 0 flex. So the first time you go over some uneven ground or land a tiny less than absolutely perfect it delams.
I heard my H9 CF gear crack on takeoff!



I am going to order some for the qq yak as well I think.

Thats hilarious, when you hear your gear crack on TAKEOFF..... then you know your screwed.

I have been flying Graphtech gear on 2 different 35% planes and have had great results as far as durability. I'm currently building a 40% Carden Edge and I didn't see a 40% Carden gear on Graphtech's website and thought he didn't make them for the 40% Cardens. I called Graphtech and it turns out he has made them and was going to make a batch here in the next week or so.

I saw Carden is getting some made by RCSupergear and I'm sure they will be nice too, but I've had good luck with Graphtech so I'm going to give them a try on my 40% Carden.
