Default RE: Maidened Bobcat - problem

ORIGINAL: wojtek

In the rare and few cases where parts were off, misalligned, etc, i don't understand why people go through hell and jump through hoops fixing these issues themselves. If my booms were miss drilled, or wings were out of incidence (on an ARF) , i'd send it back and EXPECT a replacement ... i don't see any manufacturer having reason not to take care of such an issue ... If the manufacturer would not take care of the problem, my CC company would .... ( not refering to BVM or any other specific manufacturers here, ..... )

I see no reason why BVM would not. For a $199 ARF from Giantscaleplanes.com, I don't expect much, for $4000 from BVM, I would expect perfection, and I'd hazard a guess that if the OP made a call to BVM with his problem, BVM would set him straight. I would not want to be screwing around with trying to make things fit on a premium kit like that. I spent days screwing with ill-fitting wing rods on a chinese turbine ARF, but, hey, it was really cheap, I got what I paid for. But also, I have to concede, bigtime, that John Redman may be right, it could be operator error.
