Default Harmon Rocket

I have aquestion for anyone with a Harmon Rocket, Is anyone else having a problem with the landing geer? It doesn't matter how softly I land after 4-5 landings I have to bend the the metal "arms" back in.

All who have these planes have the same problem, most have made heavier gauge landing gear to solve the problem.

Delta3, thanks for the reply. I'll have to look around to see what I can use. T have several sets of landing geer but they are "one peice units an don't lean to the back. If anyone wants to share what they have done, I would like some ideas.

Have a Great Day!

Here is the gear I used to replace the weak stock gear: [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLLC4&P=7]Venus gear[/link]

Buy a set and they practically bolt right on.

Brianiax, looks good and for $9.99 it looks like the way to go. Thank You.

Have a Great Day!
