Don't know about their other models, but I have a Rafale & after around 30 flights the retracts were falling apart. The metal is very soft. I will not be buying another Fly Eagle product.
Jim, be fair.....[>:]

These were not your best landings, to be honest. Any other airframe would have disintegrated, long before your thirtieth landing

You are right, it is a pig of a thing to land. The slightest bump & the flex plates broke. The steel trunion pins wore an elongated hole in the retract sideplates. the metal was like butter. By the time you add up the cost of fitting items of better quality, it is cheaper to pay a little extra & buy Skymaster or Jet Legend.
Good luck with your Fly Eagle AT3 kit you bought. Hope you have better luck.
