Hi folks.
Recently got my hands on a skystriker from eBay. Somehow the front landing gear does not fit tightly onto the body. I'm suspecting a missing square piece that holds them together. Anyone kind enough to share some photos of their striker's under belly? Cheers |

You pretty much need the little square retainer - thingy. Even with it, in the gear down stage theres a little wiggle room for the gear. In the halfway stage theres a lot of play in the gear, but thats probly due to hoew the guts of the jet work.
idk - hope the pics help at least... Last edited by spot138; 08-29-2011 at 09:43 PM.. |
