Projects robart Landing gear

Anyone happen to own a set of Robart landing gear?
Hopefully one of the rotating retracts would be nice
I would like to get a close up look at them...

From everything I have read, they are some of the best retracts you can get. Are you looking at the air actuated?

I have robart struts and wheels on my p-51.... very nice and easy to setup although there is some drilling and tapping required
 
Hi guys,
I agree that they are probably the nicest set around. I know a few people in the know, and am thinking I might have a crack at making some myself.
I've worked out how to make an electric linear actuator, which I should be able to create a little control box to control the actuators. I'm trying to see how the actuator fits in their landing gear (electric or pneumatic doesn't matter).
I'm trying to work out how they perform the rotation of the gear, and see how they create the locking mechanism.
I may be able to design and make my own with some help of a few friends keen to do some "foreign" orders on their CNC machines
