I have after 2 flights today found that the front strut bends way too easily. I had 2 pretty good landings but one ran from the smooth grass to the slightly rougher grass resulting in the front strut bending back about 2 centimetres. They need to up the quality on these as they're not cheap in my opinion.

I ordered the F-16 with the upgrade landing gear. After finish of the assembly I switched the surface on and immediately the right side servo moved immediately and the servo horn was stopped when it touched the bottom side of the wing! The servo horn was fiited incorrect and it had to be turned 180°, to look downwards on neutral position. The maiden flight was succsessfull and the aileron needed only a minor trim correction to the right. I use the Admiral 6S 5000mAh 50C. Total flying weight is 2180gr. I had no problem with the CG, the lipo could be moved backwards for correct position. Flying time is up to 4 1/2 minutes. The model is agil, fast and a pleasure to fly.and a pleasure to fly.

These are a must have for grass strip takeoffs and landings. In general they are of good quality but I’m knocking one star off as I feel there is some excessive lateral play on the nose gear. They look better and are stronger than the standard gear and of course they have the suspension the standard gear lacks. There is a small weight penalty though.The main advantage is that these absorb most of the shock of a hard landing and help to prevent a boumcy touch down. These are worth the extra outlay.

I already had these legs on my F-16 and found that they also fit the Freewing F-104. So this set is actually for the F-104. They work very well and the F-104 needed no modification.
