does the landing gear retract
311358
The Landing gear is basic. You can choose to remove the landing gear before take off. The aircraft has hard plastic runners underneath the aircraft for soft landings with out landing gear. There is no way to have the landing gear retract after take off if that is what you are referring to.

No it does not . I don,t use the landing gear on my plane. I hand launch mine. For me it works best.

No the landing gear does not retract. You can fly the plane with the landing gear attached to the plane or you can take them off. You'll have to hand launch if you want to take the landing gear off and do a belly landing.

There is a "Cross member" between the two landing pads in the unit I received. The picture does not show it here. I had the same reservation but took a chance, and was pleased to find the cross member in the package. I hope this helps.

Yes, the current model does allow free movement of the base joint. In the original version, the base was fixed, so you will see older comments indicating a fixed base.

Hi Jacob. Yes, it can be built with the landing gear retracted, with just a little bit of work.

No, this heli is far to responsive, not to mention collective pitch. Collective pitch allows for it to hover upside down. You want a fixed pitch to start with and transition to this after.

It does fully retract all the way down to metal clasp on the large model. Some of the smaller ones have a lead that doesn't retract all the way.

Yes it does. They are not required to attach though. It includes covers for the gear doors in case you dont want landing gear.

It changes the controls to make it faster. To test it out spin the heli in mid air. Youll notice immediately

No, it retracts out of the way and drops down with a slider on the side when you want it

I don't know, as I have not attempted to retract the wheels. This SR-71 arrived with the landing gear extended and looks so good, that I have never attempted to manipulate the landing gear, as this model looks wonderful as is.

No, it doesn't. The one could do it is from Soul of Chogokin line, GX-49. The wing could tilt and do some movement but does not "close".

It doesn't retract normally because it is an unresponsive yoyo. What he needs to learn is how to bind the yoyo. There are many instructional videos online as to how to do a bind.

Yes, but it is fairly simple. The wing screws on with two screws, the horizontal stabilizer slides into place and is held with tape, and the landing gear fits in slots and is held in with screws.

Yes. Buy the CoPilot. It is all I ever use to steer when trolling. Works great!

Mine does not retract, but instead has hooks on the back to wind the cord around for storage.

Outside soft ground anchoring. It retracts when the "rubber" end is rotated.

Yes. The unit uncoils and retracts from both ends equally. It won't work properly any other way.
