Default RE: Cessna-182 4-ch RTF Airplane*New Build

i just received my Cessna 182 yesterday from a dealer on E-bay who had it shipped directly from Art-Tech in China. My mistake as the plane arrived with only a thin skin of cardboard over the original box. You guessed it, Damaged aircraft. The internal box dividers were made of cardboard instead of foam. The main wing had the right airelon dented in a 1/4 of an inch and bent upwards with a possible crack not all the way through. Air-Tech is too cheap to provide good packing and 1/2 the planes come here damaged. I'll have to pay an additional $25 to get a new wing before I find out how it flies. I paid $156 for it with free shipping but with the cost of the new wing, I didn't save a dime. I won't order from Air-Tech again.[img][/img]
