In my opinion the counting of all FEJ pipe failures did not make real sense in the first place. You never know if those planes mentioned have been built / maintained appropriately. We all know there is a lot one can do wrong. Not saying that this was the case with Andy's F-18 but there is still too much room for guessing. I always double&triple check everything on my planes, particularly when I know that I bought ''cheap''. I exchanged a Feibao pipe because it looked like it got too hot, so I am better safe than sorry right?

One of the failures mentioned in one of the threads made me think:

´1 F15 1/9, with merlin 160 pipe failure after 3 fligth, serious damage on the rear'

No idea if it makes sense to build a 160N engine in a plane which was designed around 60-80N engines. I think it doesn't I dont think that I can blame the manufacturer when I mount a ferrari engine into a volkswagen and the brakes fail at some point. [8D]

FEJ would make a big mistake giving in anyways after all this bashing. It would just show that tons public ranting is enough to get a free kit once someone vaporized their jet.
