It's a mystery to me too, but it is an easy fix. Just unscrew the little screw that holds the rocket pod and flip the rocket pod to the correct position. You may have to add a little model or super glue to hold the rocket pod firmly in place if the screw dosen't tighten completely back up. I've done this to all my Hueys and it has corrected the problem. Hope this helps you.

Still waiting and wishing for a 1/18 A-10 Warthog.

My S1 "Hoghead II" came with them in the lower position, the newer ones are in the higher position. I noticed that but never asked anyone. :?

Guess there's always something good about the origional besides the gernade launcher :wink: My Hogshead II Huey also has the pods in the correct position. I've never noticed them flipped upwards on the other models, but then again, I only have one Huey.
