main gear issue? Material missing
« on: May 15, 2015, 11:56:48 AM »
Just looked at my main gear and noticed there is a part missing. Almost like there was an air bubble in the blank that the gear was milled out of.

Picture here:

Do I run it? I'm reluctant to seeing as this is a brand new un-built kit, but realistically I don't think its bad enough to not run, but don't really want to fork out for another expensive main gear...

Just a bit disappointed my beautiful main gear isn't as beautiful as its supposed to be :(

Hello Delarado,

Looks like either shipping damage or it was dropped at some point (maybe at my factory)

No worries, I will send you a new one. Don't run it, it's not worth the risk.

Thanks,

Matt
