  • Freewing manufacturing quality standards

    So almost a month ago I wrote a little rant on the A-10 thread which never got a comment nor an acknowledgement from Motion such as "thanks for making us aware of this" or "we'll look into this".
    I would think that Motion would be interested in understanding if this is a real issue or not. So is this a systemic problem ??

    I saw the pic of the servo. looked like spliced wires. We do that all the time, and the electric connection is not compromised. This does not seem to be a quality issue, but instead are "new" vs. refurbished issue.

      But he didn't buy a "refurbished" plane. He bought a "new" plane and a new plane should not have left the factory with a servo that had the wires spliced.

          Hey Charlie,

          Thanks for the heads up. The best way for our team to compile this type of data is through our customer service ticket system. It truly is the best way for us to see if there is a systemic issue or if it is a one off. Our fantastic online and phone support team is simply not able to peruse the threads.

          Thanks Charlie!

          Ryan

                I initiated T893646 approx. 3pm EST and your reply email was received just before 4pm. I appreciate the quick response and the acknowledgment that you'll alert Alpha and have him look into it.
                That is really all I wanted was to alert you guys and hopefully put a stop to a problem if it turns out to be systemic.
                Would appreciated a follow up when the facts are ferreted out.
                Thanx Martin:Cool:
