So I love the Hobby King electric retracts but their plates can leave something to be desired. This plate is designed for their metal trunion model with a 44mmx41mm mounting plate.

I've installed this on my own aircraft to test it and it seems to be holding fairly well. I've got it on my Top Flite AT-6 Texan which weighs in at about 7 pounds. I printed in ABS and the strength seems good but I do not recommend you fly when it is colder out. It makes the plastic more brittle and I have had a failure. It was 23F outside.

I've beveled the holes to accept the stock screws as well. I added a bit more thickness for added strength but the stock screws will seat just fine.
