To whom it may concern,
Please visit the link above, I have visited it as have many other people. I have contacted both Tower and Great Planes about the Reactor landing gear problem and what solution your engineers are going to offer to solve it. This is a fantastic airplane with an enormous flaw. The wheels are placed to close to the CG, many years of experience will tell you that. Mine is balanced perfectly with a neutral elevator to fly level and lands as smooth as glass on a runway that looks like a putting green. As soon as I stop and throttle up again with elevators on high rates over I go. Is there an official fix or is everybody's head still in the sand. I own 5 great planes aircraft right now all are excellent performing craft and none have a flaw like this. Is there a fix or are you telling me I am on my own. The last reply I had to this was that I didn't know how to flair when I land. That's not a good answer from your call center / customer support people to a customer of 20+ years. After 22 years flying RC aircraft the comment doesn't sit well.
Thank you,
Respectfully
