Performance specs
The EFLG21190 provides smooth, fast retract operation: approximately 1.25 seconds at 4.8 V, 1.0 second at 6.0 V, and a lightning-fast 0.75 seconds at 7.4 V—ideal for realistic gear cycles during takeoff or landing sequences.
Built for 15–25 size models
Designed for 15–25 size RC aircraft, the retract supports scale models, warbirds, and sport planes needing durable, space-efficient gear while retaining internal fuselage space for other systems.
Quick installation process
Installation is seamless—mount using existing nose gear points, connect via the JR-style plug, and the retract is flight-ready. Its streamlined structure maintains full functionality and avoids the complexity of pneumatic systems.
Advantages over pneumatic gear
