Wheels

Post by catwok »

Good morning, an engineering / flying buddy of mine is making some retract units to 1/3rd scale, hopefully for sale in the new year!!! But we are trying to find a good source of wheels... ideally 130mm x 40mm, has anybody got any suggestions?

Thanks, Paul

I purchased a nice aluminium wheel hub and rubber tyre for my 1\3 dg 800 retract build from hobbyking. It was better quality than expected. I think it is 5 in ? And was only £12.
