From my own experience, even very short grass will touch the wheel panel doors when the suspension compresses. If you've ever watched a video of a plane taking off when the camera is mounted on the belly, you can see just how much the suspension moves up and down on pavement. Make that grass, even golf green grass and the strut panels will touch. Now, if you would have told me that he was flying off pavement and those things fell off, then I would agree that the quality of those components would be "cheap", not only in design but in execution.

Btw, rescheming mine to the Dark Green Olive Scheme and weathering. I'll post some progress pics as it comes along. Hey look it’s inverted...

My biggest gripe was the cost of the replacement parts. Especially the fuselage. When it was first announced the replacement fuselage was marked at over $200. I see it's been marked down to a much more realistic $119, so that gripe's gone away now too.
I really like this one! And it's tax return season..
Hmm..
