Default New springs from FBjets!

I'm pleased to report an update on the springing of this model re fbjets last post.
The factory have obviously taken notice, I emailed them and within a week a complete set of new springs has arrived and I have just installed them.
The nylon bushes have also been modified and I had to turn down the o/d a little to get them to fit.
I have to say that they do indeed feel a lot better on the bench but I won't know until I get out and fuel up etc. I'll report on this when I know the difference, I have also promised to let the factory know the results.
I have refused to fly with the new wings up to now for fear of damaging them but I'm much more confident after fitting the new springs.

I'd like to thank FB Jets for attending to this problem, nice to know that they are taking notice of my comments.

Gary.
