Does anyone know how the landing skids come off? Ive got a broken set that i want to replace and i am hoping i dont have to split the helicopter in two.

They just slide off iirc, been 25 years since I last fitted any tho ;)

Well i'll be..... if I'd know that a few months ago I'd not have had to rig up an elaborate support structure to hold mine in place whilst I glued them, and maybe they would have glued straight too!

I have to admit i have been trying to pull it off all night and it wont come! :oops: On the yojoe instructions that chopper kindly posted it shows that tabs go onto the landing skids before you slide it into place. I think those tabs have locked it into place. Thank's anyway chopper because i didnt know about these before your posting.

I do hope you mean it's the porn that's worn out! Otherwise we may have the answer to why it wouldn't come - you've broken it! :tongue:
