What is it with my ARFs? I've never had to do any reinforcement or repairing on any new ARF.
While I tend to re-inforce whenever possible, the only real failures I've had have been when I've landed quite hard.
Maybe all too often hard landings are not taken to be such, by the pilots....
( although my Brio 10 has admittedly WEAK gear! )...
I've seen pilots bounce planes so hard that I cringe, and then they act as if this is normal wear and tear.
I guess I end up re-inforcing to prevent their failures?
I never had a problem with my Brio 10 landing gear. Then again, I fly off a smooth paved surface. I agree, some pilots think one or two feet high bounced landings are normal! I'm not saying everybody that has had a problem is a bad pilot, I'm sure there are lemons out there..... I just haven't bought one yet.
