Hey guys,
I ordered the e-Flite V900 but it came with two construction failures.
- First one makes it impossible to attach the Wings properly as you can see here...
...the drilling for the thread is way over tolerance and the thread is also glued far away from the center. What comes out when you wanna put the wings on is this:
And here you can see the thread from the fuselage interior. My point is: This glue is super hard. How can it be removed smoothly?
I know what you wanna say: Send it back! But: It's a never ending story with the retailer's customer service, so let me spare you the story and help me to fix this.
Because in addition to that hassle, I can't even send the freakin plane back, because the screw for the elevator, however, can easily be unscrewed, but it won't come out of the foam channel. Foam in the channel is holding it back I guess. And that is failure no. 2 that makes it impossible to put the plane back into the packaging. Be assured, I didn't screw it too hard and I also don't wanna hurt the plane only to loose my rights of reimbursement.
So, I am really thinking of keeping the plane (still hoping for a descent discount) and fix it it. Ideas very welcomed!
