XD F-104 landing gear collapse
Posted: Mon Dec 27, 2010 5:25 pm
Hey guys.
Anyone else have the main gear on their 104 break? Mine just plain cracked, just above the wheel hub (the small 7 sided piece, behind the wheel).
The plane has never been played with and just spends it's life sitting on a shelf. I just repositioned it one day, and when I set it back down it collapsed on the deck
Anyone got any fixes? I'm guessing just glueing it back on won't be strong enough?
