Here is the next series ....The top is removed leaving the gear and other STUFF mounted to it.........the next picture is removing the Stock gear and supporting arm bracket........

Next is the AUW of the S800, which is 5.9 Kilos..........the only thing it does not have is the STOCK props and they will add an additional 100 grams

We have access to certified scales...I know it looks like hell but they are accurate and certified as they are used to weigh Pigment. Anyway, the first two pictures are of the retract system with the turnbuckles...AUW 220 grams......

OK....HERE WE GO.........................! I will try to explain all of the pictures as we go......Please ask and I have not tightened anything so i can pull apart, weigh and put it back together.....First let me state there are NO directions with the retracts...so this is a learning experience...

208 versus 875 grams is a huge weight difference.........Time to tear the gear off of the S800...........We will do detailed pictures of the installation. It will be a while because i am posting here and on the groups......I will certainly try to answer any questions you guys may have, just let...

Boris, I will weigh the S800 before i remove the gear and give you guys an all up weight after they are installed. This AUW will be with a GO Gimbal and a Sony Nex 5 Camera so YMMV.............

The all up weight of everything for the retracts is 221 grams, including all rods, turnbuckles and screws, but this does not take into account the four suspension rods that will be removed from the S800 gear. I will weigh those when I remove them........... So 208 grams sounds about right for...

Damn....IT Worked......! Picture # 1 is the way it was packed. We ordered these on Tuesday and they arrived on Saturday,to late for that day's delivery. They were packed very well and the shipping time from Korea to the states was phenominal..... Picture #2 is of the box they werei in inside...

Vislaw, Yes...the individual weight of the retract is 98 grams EACH......Let me figure out how to post pictures and I will show whazt we have so far.

We have the SeCraft Retracts in hand....Pictures to follow..................

As we have mentioned in several other postings on the Groups, Failsafe is one of our main concerns also...What happens in a failure, whether it be Radio, Power Loss or Mechanical Failure of the Drive Unit...will they come down and lock? No one will know until they are actually delivered and...

Hazard, I believe heinz is talking about these retracts: http://www.pimp-your-kopter.de/frame/-landegestelle/klapplandegestell-fuer-s800.php Not the SeCraft ones....there are evidently three different retract systems for the s800 out there now.......It appears that the Secraft Retracts pull...

Great Video....Looks like they operate very smoothly....We ordered yesterday and have NO idea how long it will take to get to the States. Looking forward to their arrival and trials on our S800.......We will post pics of installation and operation.

Check the above Link................................

Here's one of the three Links for the different colored Retracts for the S800..... http://www.secraft.net/shop/step1.php?number=1316 We have ordered a set and will do a review as soon as they arrive and we get them installed. The "Quality" appears to be there and it looks like they did their...

Hello All, Just got back from the Joe Nall Fly In, last week in South Carolina. Had a chance to observe a Gaui 500X and I must say I am hooked.....! Lots of heli and plank experience and I found the 500 to be very stable in pretty high winds. I am part of the Joe Nall/Triple Tree Aerodrome...
