Yup! the tuft of grass was big enough to shear off my nose strut. I need to reprint a small part, but I am honestly glad that the strut was the weakest link.
If the strut was more robust, There could have been a transfer of force into the fuselage, and possibly do more damage.
Take another look at the last photo i posted, you can see the lower strut with the wheels departing in the left side of the picture.

Kudos to all of you that have the talent to turn this stuff out! I truly wish I had the time to learn, but life gets in the way. Perhaps when my last is out of HS (2 years left) I will be able to tinker with something like this. I am just happy when I get some time to fly anymore. Anyway, is there anyone on here that offers a printing service? I have the 90mm F!8C on the way and would love to load her out. Extras for the F4 are also on my wish list. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

BT, Can't assist yet with your F/A 18C, though there are STL files on the MotionRC Support Page for the Phreewing PH-4 Phantom. Also, I posted some STL files on the F-4 3DPUP Forum and somewhere in this forum that you are free to use. As for a Printing Service, I only know of "The RCGeek" and he, too, has 'goodies' available for sale for the Freewing F-4. I'll be home in a couple of weeks, if you'll jot down and remember to send me a PM then, I might have some spares around from my Phantom build. We could work something out there, perhaps. Anyway, best of luck on the Hornet 3DP parts and if you find 3DP printable goodies, please post those in this and the F/A 18C forum. Thanks, LB
