Snake45 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 yeah, makes sense, wire being as expensive as it is nowa days. Must be why we no longer have those sturdy metal axles in model cars too. It's not the wire itself, it's the forming of the special bends in it--or whatever. As I said, this is just rumor--talk over in Model Airplane World. I wish they'd reissue that set. I'd love to have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
