ORIGINAL: erbroens

The only problem found on this plane is the hours spent fiddling with the landing gear. Even on the most greased on landings, the legs get a little bent, and then we have to spend time on fixing it. This problem
was apparently solved with the addition of a rubber strip under all the gears. This rubber apparently makes the leg a less rigid structure, so, it can bend a little without damaging the gear mechanics. (so far).

This is beacuase you are using a landing gear that is not built to withstand repeated landings of an RC jet.

Try Robart gear next time and the issue will be completely solved

Regardless, cool jet! Glad it's flying well.
