Richard Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I am still looking for a set of Infinity retract landing gear for sale. New / used / or damaged / just the struts / installed or laying around any condition. Infinity Aerospace is not responding to calls or inquiries since June. Any leads or referrals appreciated.

jridge Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Does anyone have a updated status on JD at Infinity? Thought he was going to be back by Aug-Sept. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 I was hoping to see JD at Oshkosh but he did not attend. Phone goes straight to voicemail, no response to emails directly and I get what looks like an auto response when using the on site web contact page. I had another forum member contact me who is in communication with him but I have had no luck reaching him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voidhawk9 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 That's a concern for those building with plans to install the gear (but haven't ordered yet).

Jon Matcho Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Easy fix... change your plans and "settle" for fixed gear 🙂 Quote Jon Matcho Builder & Canard Zone Admin Now: Rebuilding Quickie Tri-Q200 N479E Next: Resume building a Cozy Mark IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff I am building a Berk-EZ. Receiving wing cores from Eureka CNC next week. Shooting to start fuselage Jan or Feb next year but need to settle gear for that to happen.

jridge Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Richard- Sounds interesting. Can you elaborate on details of the build? And just curious - when I last spoke with Eureka (this summer), they told me foam core prices would nearly triple due to his supply of economically priced foam disappearing. If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for the foam cores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 I am building a Berkut without the kit. The fuselage will be carbon triax and made from a one-off CNC foam mold. $4224.00 for the complete Berkut package with jigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Ashton Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I saw a message from J.D. Newman today saying he had been sick but planned to resume his business (Infinity) some day. From the description of his problems I wouldn't count it it happening very quickly.
