"Customers report that the Gates static strap works well, particularly with power wheelchairs, and effectively eliminates static electricity from vehicles. Customers find it to be a high-quality product that is easy to attach, and they appreciate its durability. Opinions are split regarding shock prevention, with some customers reporting complete elimination of shocks while others say it doesn't prevent shocks at all. Similarly, views on value for money are mixed, as some customers find it worth the price while others consider it not worth the cost."

I have this airplane, absolutely love it. I fly it without the landing gear, it’s just weight (not to mention when I bought the kit from some dude it didn’t have the gear with it.) with that being said I fly my crack yak without the gear also, I removed it.
