Default need help repairing magic landing gear

That goofy landing gear is part of the Magic's mystique. You can fix just about anything that breaks on that gear by wrapping with thin gauge wire and using JB Weld. I have repaired mine many times. You can also get a replacement gear for about $15.

I think one of the problems people are having is trying to takeoff and land this plane like a NORMAL plane. It is made to take off quickly in 4 or 5 feet and land VERY slowly and softly with little to no rollout. since I started flying it like this the gear has never broken. I also do not try and taxi it very far.
