RE: TBM Shock Jet

When I got mine the Fuse was one piece. Nice change they made. Facilitates assembly as well as saves money on shipping.

RE: TBM Shock Jet

Thanks Jed!

RE: TBM Shock Jet

RE: TBM Shock Jet

The only flaws I've found are the wheels and the main gear axles. The wheel hubs bend easily of side l;oads are applied. I had tio crab in on a landing due to a stiff crosswind. The side load caused...
