Default RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

Hey guys,
Has anyone else had the problem with a crushed rudder when it was taken out of the box? What did you do to correct the problem? I thought I could fix the problem but I am now not so sure. It had more internal damage than I originally thought. I removed the elevator plastic mount and split the rear section and tried to glue the crushed areas so it would have some strength. After the glue dried the rudder and elevator is still offset to one side and that will cause triming problems.

I haven't contacted Horrizon yet. Thought I would wait until I see the results of this repair. They have always been so helpful in the past when I had a a problem with my PZ190 that I don't anticipate they would give me a problem with the Spitfire crushed rudder problem.
