Default RE: Pizzaz disappointment--- CA hinges?!

Nice to know that I'm not the only one with landing gear problems on the Pizzaz. I've tried installing the gear forward and backward and still knock them off. I have 1/4-20 nylon screws that are thankfully shearing.

I think the cure is straight landing gear. The stock gear angles forward causing an angular force applied to the fuse on hard landings. This twists the gear on impact. Straight gear will apply the force straight to the fuse.

Of course, my harrier landings are not helping either, but that is another story...
