Default Need help identifying part/buying part

Hey guys, Iwas had a rough landing and lost the little white peice which holds the wheel on to the plane landing gear for a shunda condor.

Can anyone identify this part and/or tell me where I can find it/buy it?

thanks

It's a Micro wheel retainer.

Dubro sells them but they look a bit different.

See: [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDCU3&P=7]Wheel Retainer[/link]


You can also get a piece of brass tubing, cut a small piece and solder it on to retain the wheel. You can also solder a washer to it too if needed.

There are all sorts of substitutes you can use.

E.g. Wheel Collars

Thank you John for your offer to replace but but after 3 hours of searching and finnaly giving up and then standing around and happen to be looking down... I actually found this little sucker right at my feet. Iwas actually standing in the middle of the street because my sister was comming over which was a bit weird but it turnedout great for me.

This kind of service, offering to replace a part the owner (me) had lost, really shows what great service and product supportNitroplanes provides. Ilook foward to buying more planes from nitroplanes just as soon as they get the models I want back in stock.
