The gear works really well and also well built. I have made about a dozen flights so far with no problems at all. I would recommend these to anyone looking for well built and reliable gear in this size range.

I've been using a set of these in a 5.3 Pound Twin for 14 months. I has a mishap where a servo failed and i lost steering. The plane at full Takeoff power veered into a 7 inch pipe. The LG took the brunt of the hit and as the plane went over the pipe both nacelles were ripped off. The end result was i needed to bend the nose strut back and that was it. I've pounded the plane down, done grass landings,run off the end of the runway and generally abused them to the point where they should have failed a long time ago. The still work perfectly every time!
Remember this I'm using them 45 degrees from their intended design! The F7F's gear retracts straight back with the bearing pin left to right not front to back like a P-47/P-51.This is the weakest possible way to mount them !
If these can take that than they will last forever in a 40oz Park Zone plane.
In this case you do get what you pay for.

These are great little retracts. I installed these in Parkzone P47 years ago and after hundreds of flights they continue to work as good as when they were new. I have used this line of retracts in my bigger planes as well. A great addition to any warbird.

Putting retracts on any warbird increases the beauty of it. Plus they fly so much better. They just pop in place and have to feed the wires through a small hole in the wing. Small screw driver or very skinny needle nose pliers. Out of 50 cycles I only had one of the gears hang once and re-cycle fixed it.

3 stars for value as they are a little expensive compared to other companies.
