Default RE: Comp Arf Flash wheel issues
ORIGINAL: JoelP

I've read the entire the thread on this jet. This weekend I had a wheel depart the rim on landing...common problem since they're not bolted to the rims. I bought some rubber CA and glued it back on but I'm looking for a better solution. Has anyone used BVM 3'' wheels and brakes with the stock Behotec struts that come with the Flash?
Also, looking for alternate main retract solutions...the Behotec units have a tone of slop when retracted. Looking for a drop in replacement without having to reengineer the gear mounts. Any suggestions welcomed!

i think because of the long strait struts and the heavy wheels and brakes both your trunion blocks had it..

i suggest get spare parts.
exchange the struts for trailing ones
exchange bolt and trunionblock for a 8mm hole size one.
exchange the wheels for softer ones and dont run off the rim..
