Hangar-9 PA-18 PNP 1/4 Scale
I have had a problem with the landing gear on my new PA-18, After two excellant flights and very gentle landings, I noticed the front landing gear mounts pulled out of the bottom of the plane. Upon inspection I noted that the gear mounting plate had been tack glued in place but never glued in properly. I sent pictures to Hangar-9 with a description of the problem. I told them I was willing to swap servos and all equipment out of the PNP and install in a new fuse. After jumping through all of their hoops, I was told that they were out of stock and I would have to make the repairs myself. Funny that their website showed they were in stock. Has anybody out there experienced a similar problem?

I have been flying this model for over three years and the only landing gear issues i've had are the rubber bands on the gear don't last long. No glue issues !!! I hope you get your problem resolved with Hangar 9.
Good luck,
