Frequently Asked Questions
- What are landing gear mounts and why do I need them? — Landing gear mounts are structural components that secure your helicopter's landing skids to the main airframe. They endure significant stress during every take-off and landing, and can crack, bend or break after impacts or hard landings. Having replacement mounts ensures you can quickly repair your Fusion 180 and return to flying without extended downtime.
- Are these mounts genuine Blade parts? — Yes, the BLH5805 is a genuine Blade component manufactured by the original equipment maker for the Fusion 180 platform. This guarantees perfect fitment and compatibility with your helicopter, unlike aftermarket alternatives that may require modification.
- How do I know if my landing gear mounts need replacement? — Inspect your mounts regularly for visible cracks, permanent bending, or deformation. If you've had a hard landing or tip-over, examine the mounts carefully even if damage isn't obvious, as micro-fractures can develop and worsen with subsequent flights.
- Will these parts work with other Blade helicopter models? — No, these mounts are engineered specifically for the Blade Fusion 180 platform. Using incorrect mounts from other Blade models could result in poor fitment, misalignment of landing gear, or structural failure. Always verify part compatibility before purchasing.
- What other Fusion 180 spares should I keep in stock? — RC Model Shop recommends keeping spare main shafts, feathering shafts, main gears, sets of main blades, and tail components in your field box. The landing gear mounts are also essential to this maintenance inventory, particularly if you fly regularly or in challenging conditions.
