I am not sure which retracts I should get for my Top Flite GE Corsair 1/7th scale? Centry jet or robarts?

Heard there were issues with the CJ retracts in the past. Might wanna do a search in RCU on the subject.

NO TO CJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO TO ROBART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Having said that, I've got these

http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_21...tm.htm#5664918

Lee Robinson took it upon himself (he's 70 somethin and lives in Florida) to build a set of rotators when Sierra said he would build a set (Sierra is mostly for big stuff not this 1/8 scale) and then stopped communicating with people who gave him $200 deposits.

Sierra finally came through with a set but long after Lee had them out. They look somewhat more "polished" than Lee's do but a lot of people owe Lee a debt of gratitude for stepping up to the plate.

I haven't flown with mine yet (installed) but I can vouch for their robustness.
