Hi Steve -<br>
I replaced my Eclipse aluminum gear w/ the ES about 75 flights
ago. The size and shape are almost identical to the Eclipse. The
weight savings was closer to 3oz total. The alum gear was 6oz for both
legs vs about 3oz for the ES. It has held up just fine, and actually
seems to be easier on the gear mount and fuse since it absorbs some
landing "stress" rather than transmit the stress directly to the gear
mount like the alum gear did. I'm ordering another set for my Eclipse
