Hi Guys,

I have had a bit of a rough landing with my Boomer and broke the plastic mounting for the stearable nose wheel, also bent the nose gear . I am using the fixed gear that comes with the model and I am having great trouble getting a new one.

If anyone has fitted retracts and has the redundent plastic mounting from the kit, I would like very muck to buy so that I can get back in the air ( its not worth me going for retracts as the strip I fly off is not the best !

many thanks

Ray

Hello Ray, You can go to Hobbytown Or any Hobby shop and a get a Dubro Nose gear mount for around $2.00 a drill you two extra holes. 2 will match and 2 of them want. Also get you a folk style nose wheel struct that will help you in the grass. This what i did when my had broken, make sure you get a lock nut screw set.
