The E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set for 25–46 size aircraft is a precision-engineered tricycle electric gear system designed to elevate the realism, control, and aerodynamic performance of mid-size RC warbirds and sport planes. Featuring a complete three-unit configuration—two main gear assemblies and one steerable nose gear—the E-Flite F-EFLG330 tricycle electric gear system replicates the behavior of full-scale aircraft with smooth 90-degree inward rotation and responsive deployment. This system is built for aircraft in the 5–9 lb range and integrates seamlessly into platforms like the T-28 Trojan, P-51 Mustang, and custom sport builds. With chrome-plated metal struts, brushed motor actuation, and plug-in JR connectors, the E-Flite F-EFLG330 landing gear upgrade for warbirds delivers both form and function in a bolt-in, maintenance-friendly package.

What makes the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set ideal for mid-size aircraft?
The E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set for 25–46 size aircraft is purpose-built for RC pilots who demand scale realism and mechanical reliability in aircraft weighing between 5 and 9 pounds. Its tricycle configuration mirrors the landing gear layout of full-scale planes, offering two main gear units and a steerable nose gear that collectively improve ground handling, balance, and takeoff stability. The bolt-in installation eliminates the need for structural modification, making the system a practical upgrade for both restoration projects and new builds. Whether you're flying a T-28 Trojan or a custom sport plane, the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set integrates seamlessly into your airframe while enhancing operational realism.
How does the 90-degree rotation improve aerodynamic performance?
The E-Flite retracts with brushed motor and plug-in fit feature a 90-degree inward rotation mechanism that retracts the gear cleanly into the fuselage. This motion not only replicates the behavior of full-scale aircraft but also reduces drag during flight, improving speed and fuel efficiency. The scale-style geometry adds visual authenticity while contributing to smoother transitions between ground and air. For RC pilots focused on performance and realism, this rotation mechanism is a critical advantage that sets the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set apart from fixed gear alternatives.
Why is electric actuation preferred over pneumatic systems?
The E-Flite F-EFLG330 tricycle electric gear system uses a self-contained brushed motor with an integrated micro PCB, eliminating the need for servos, linkages, or air tanks. This design simplifies installation and reduces maintenance, allowing pilots to focus on flying rather than troubleshooting gear mechanisms. The motor system delivers consistent deployment speeds across a voltage range of 4.8V to 7.4V, with actuation times averaging around 2.5 seconds. Built-in overcurrent protection ensures safe operation even under stall or overload conditions, making the system both reliable and user-friendly for intermediate and advanced flyers.
How does the steerable nose gear enhance ground control?
The E-Flite F-EFLG330 with metal struts and steerable nose gear offers precise directional control during taxiing and takeoff. The steerable nose gear responds accurately to pilot input, allowing for smoother runway alignment and reduced risk of nose-over incidents. This feature is especially valuable in crowded flying fields or uneven terrain, where maneuverability is essential. By replicating the ground behavior of full-scale aircraft, the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set adds realism and confidence to every flight session.
Is the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set compatible with most receivers?
The E-Flite gear set for T-28, P-51, and sport planes includes JR-style universal connectors that are compatible with most standard RC receivers. This plug-in fit streamlines the installation process and ensures broad compatibility across platforms. Whether you're upgrading an existing aircraft or integrating the gear into a new build, the connector system allows for quick setup without proprietary wiring or complex configurations. Combined with the bolt-in mounting design, the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set delivers plug-and-play simplicity for pilots who value efficiency and reliability.
Why is this the best E-Flite retract system for scale realism and control?
The best E-Flite retracts with 2.5 sec deployment and universal connectors offer a rare combination of scale geometry, responsive actuation, and durable construction. Chrome-plated metal struts provide corrosion resistance and visual appeal, while the 90-degree rotation mechanism ensures aerodynamic efficiency. The steerable nose gear adds ground control, and the brushed motor system simplifies setup. For RC pilots restoring warbirds or upgrading sport flyers, the E-Flite F-EFLG330 retract set delivers unmatched realism and operational integrity in a compact, bolt-in package.

We want to make sure your delivery goes smoothly, so here are some important details about our service:
- For orders above £120, we offer delivery to most mainland UK addresses. For orders under £120, we can still deliver to Northern Ireland and the outlying isles, as long as the item can be sent by Royal Mail, weighs less than 30kg, and fits within 61cm × 46cm × 46cm. Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.
- Most of our products include delivery in the price. If your order is under £90, a small delivery fee will apply but do not worry this will always be clearly shown at checkout before you complete your purchase.
- Depending on what you choose at checkout, your order will usually be delivered either the next working day or within 2 working days. For next day delivery please place your order before 2:00pm. Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
- If a product is marked as "Dispatched within 3 working days" delivery usually takes around 3 to 5 working days from when your order is placed.
- For customers in Inverness and other parts of the Scottish Highlands deliveries can take up to 2 working days even if you select next day delivery as couriers do not currently offer a guaranteed next day service to those areas.
