I landed hard today and tore the landing gear block and firewall off the model. The breaks are very clean. It will be an easy fix. I think it was for the best that this happened. After looking at the front end of the model I'm going to reinforce the structure behind the firewall.

Clean breaks indeed. Even the pinned block cleanly pulled out from the firewall, cleanly pulling out the wood (or is it bamboo?) pins. I did in fact notice that they used that darn hot-melt glue to hold it all together.
