Standard Hangar 9 Aircraft wheel wells

As a cheap starter to retracts this kit is ok but most unscale in that the mustang's wheel wells are completely sealed with no gaps. The standard retracts are flimsy and wobbly but I hear the latest kit is much improved.

 

 

With a little surgery you can do as I have done and massively improve the appearance of the wheel wells by using clamshells. These are separate doors hinged to open and close before and after the main U/C legs move up and down. There is sufficient room to get a second servo in to do this and the result is worth the hassle.
