Default RE: NEXSTAR ARF .....PROBLEMS...PROBLEMS

My Nexstar has not given me any of these problems discussed...until today. The bouncy main gear was just too much, so we drilled holes and safety wired them to each other. The very next landing, I touched down a little hard, but not too hard.. on the left main and the strut ripped up into the bottom of the fuse, and tore up the bulsa. Now that side of the gear does not snap in like it used to. My instructor was speachless, as it was not a hard landing (had 35 years experience).

Do you think Hobbico will replace?
