This retract needs to be made with better material or aluminum housing

As a stand alone product this retract is as good as any other and I would rate as a 5 star. However, when installed in the Freewing A-10 the plastic housing of the retract is not strong enough to hold up to the average wear and tear of less than perfect landings or grass landings. I have had to replace this retract many times because the plastic housing cracks in the same moon shape pattern after several landings that are acceptable landings but just not greased landings. The retract design for this plane should include a metal housing to withstand the weight of this plane. Love the overall service and value from MRC.

Pros: excellent quality. Worked like a charm.Cons: no instructions on the installation of the upgraded gear. The replacement noise gear worked well.

I have now decided to not fly the A-10 again because the nose gear breaks on almost every landing. Totally frustrating! Definitely not worth the hassle! Consider a total loss of $
