Default RE: Makeshift Runway

Jburry, same here! We have little 'rollers' on our strip, along with some tire tracks from someone doing donuts on our field, too. Not much affects the glow planes.

I did have a hard landing, and my Nexstar bounced once and came down nose gear first into one of the rollers. It bent the gear a bit, but nothing to keep it out of the sky.

Good advice about switching wheels - maybe I'll do that. Currently using stock Nexstar foamies.
