Default Well now everythings just going wrong...

Everything to go along with my planes seems to be goin wrong....Here's a list:
Start Quit

Fuel pump act funny (Pumps then stops then pumps again)

Pulled the drawer of field box today

Had to replace ALL harware in trainer...

Had to replace propellor..

Fuel tanks all replaced

Stopper and fuel line got soft or cracked

brass tubing started to corrode(dont even leave fuel in tanks!)

And a host of other problems...

The starter will be going back to hobbico. Will replace fuel pump.. Already reglued drawer. Tomorrow I'm going to do a thourough inspection of EVERYTHING that has to do anything with my planes... But I'm just wandering is it normal for these items to go south after 1 year(Bought it all last x-mas... The pump has had MAYBE 8 gallons through it and the starter has beens used almost every weekend but I still figured these things would last.... I hope I don't have to replace all the Hardware on My Ultra Stick Lite 1.20 next year... That'd have to be a whole christmas worth of stuff!
