I had a CMPro Mustang and my spinner exploded also. CMPRO SPINNERS ARE UTTER SHITE. DON'T USE THEM FFS! And the spar webbing ran length wise with the spar, so after the heavy landing following the spinner explosion, the U/C split the spars and webbing apart the full length of the wings! Bin job the whole lot.

Easy fix, tho that is enough to piss anyone off!

you know you where going to crashland hard why didnt you belly land you could have saved youre reatracts if they where still up and the prop was gone any way

i have the same plane. i just drilled all the way through the back spinner plate and got longer screws to go all the way to the back. i have had no problems with mine. i have a metal spinner too just in case.
Hi

Well the one I was looking at was sold before I got back to the shop and they reckon its hard to get them. You guys are obviously Aussies so where did you pick yours up from ??
I saw some nice spinners special made for sale in the US, haven't seen anything like that for sale in Australia though.

Thats a shame mate, a nice plane ruined. I almost bought this plane last week and checked the forums for problems. I do that now with every new model that i buy.
RC universe is a good one. Anyway, apparently this has happened to others as well and is downright dangerous. Imagine it coming apart when tuning the motor.
The plane got good reviews but the guys were changing out to metal spinners.
CMP should be aware of this and get serious about fixing the problem.
