I learned the hard way, when something goes wrong just belly land it in grass cause you'll surely rip the retracts out of the wings or you'll bend them all up.
Oh the price of vanity. you knew the spinner was Chinese crap, reports all over about them blowing up mid flight, yet you continued to fly with it, Planes fly fine without spinners, trust me. Sucks all the same.
@dirkberserk i got a spinner from dave patric or dave brown in the us, its nylon and aloy back plate its nice but a little bit smaller than the stock spinner
@dirkberserk YT international (UK) makes a scale 4 1/4" spinner for a BF109. I just got mine yesterday and it looks beautiful. They are the only company that I am aware of that makes an aluminum spinner for this plane. Its identical to the full size spinner. Well worth the money.
Thanks for showing this video to us who have not yet completed our CM Pro 109's. I saw the problem with this kit as soon as I opened it. With an airplane this size, it is a good idea to at least use an aluminum backplate if you want to use the stock plastic spinner. I will be looking for an all aluminum 109 spinner to use with this plane. Sorry about your crash!
Good job on that recovery man. I hope you got your money back or at least a replacement plane. I hope your retracts and other gear were not too damaged.
I just got a new one. a replacement from the shop but no spinner i would have binned it any way.just started to dirty it up a bit and i will move the landing gear forward
WHY COULDNT YOU JUST LET IT BELLY LAND LESS DAMAGE AND GEARS WOULD HAVE BEEN OK!!

that crash was your doing yes you lost you prop.
mistake 1# you put your gear down

I loved the way the 2 airplanes were flyng toghether.
Very defective spinner, I am sure you can get a replace of the whole thing from your retailer if you prove it with your video.
Question: is that fg 20 saito worth it???
