I just purchased my first Startduster and it seems to have a history of landing gear upgrades and/or repairs. While I was in the market for this plane I learned of others who have modified their landing gear to correct this problem. What are the facts on what seems to be the weak link on this plane? Should I beef up the landing gear or not?
