@ericholmberg4691 lol as all the flightline birds gear fall out "must be a skill issue" 😆 Get real dude flightline planes aren't made that well lolol 😅 😂 🤣 We all know this by now 😆
Nice short flight … it was a glue Monday plane 🤣 Are you using regularly epoxy on foam? I haven’t used it in a while. Just E8000. It melts foam a bit but the bond is super strong 👌🏼 Have a nice evening!😊
I have already repaired and used my favorite epoxy Gorilla brand 5 minute epoxy. Just pour , stir and apply. I use wooden popsicle sticks to apply and stir.
Landing gear is massively neglected. My FMS Zero 1400mm couldn't be used on grass at all, it would nose over as soon as power was applied even with 100% plus elevator and a push start. First landing one of the mains ripped right out, plenty of glue but virtually no structure to hold it in, no more than about 4mm of foam to upper wing surface which ripped open. Had to open it up add ply, rake the gear forward and add FMS P51 1400mm oleos with bigger wheels, 0.8mm -1/64 ply sheet let in to upper wing surface above main gear. Nice flyer but too much effort for a PNP foamie. Still see 2m T28's with with rigid wire gear and a fake oleo plastic cover! Here thats a $1000 model.
Well it is $630 still too expensive for that oversite. They did at least improve the reliability of the gear itself. As for this plane a little epoxy and all it good. Should not have to do that however.
My Hobbyking Yak 11 had the same problem, one of the retracts came out cleanly because there wasn't enough glue on it. These chinese companies need to use more glue on the landing gear! You think they would because the landing gear takes the most wear and tear especially on grass!
All these planes are made on an assembly line, glue is pushed in and then hopefully cured enough to handle being moved around to the next step. Then the kit is packed in the foam coffin and then sits in a hot warehouse for who knows how long before being shoved into a EVEN hotter steel shipping container then the long boat ride over here. No wonder the glue detaches and lets loose.

The main gear just fell out! SHAMEFUL Flightline! However it is a simple fix and not a deal breaker! Plane is worth a few issues!
Seems to be a norm for flightline. My flightline bearcat gesr fell out as well. I ended up using epoxy for it so it won't ever come back out 😅
Poor preflight.

@@RCCruiser Yes but they fly so well!!!
@@FatGuyFliesRC I agree to that! My flightline bearcat is one of my smoothest flyers!
I use E6000 to glue in reracks on foam airplanes .It has some give to it and not so brittle .Try it you might like it ,let me know.
I have used it before and I agree it is good. I however have already repaired with epoxy.
At least it’s an easy fix. This plane seems to fly real smooth. I really like the sound of the two props .
yeah it is a great plane worth a few issues.
beautiful, I once built a P 38 from a kit with two os 46's Managed five flights before it made a spectacular rekit.
I hear you on the rekit, haha. Thanks for sharing.
My suggestion, “Motors are on, don’t get hurt.”
I try different ones with different planes, on my new 80 f-22 I have "motor to hot dont get burned"
Nice😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have a silver one with the upgraded gear. I am planning to reinforce landing gear mount with blind nuts.
I took mine out and reinstalled with gorrilla glue brand epoxy.
Thanks for the grass Ops! 😊
Will try again when epoxy is cured.
Love that plane... just needs some invasion stripes
May just have to do that.
😢🖤🙏
Thanks for the visit.

@@FatGuyFliesRC OK, cool! And that seems to adhere good to foam also...
