Andy, please do not post in capitals, it is considered to be shouting and will put some people off from replying to your question.
 
Sorry I can't help with your specific question but hopefully someone who can will be along shortly.

Agree with Lee. Got an La-7 with a  lot of finishing work. I've modded mine for wing mounted aileron servos which was quite a job and the retracts are not the easiest to fit! However the final outcome will be worth it!
