V-Tail Landing Struts

As a new, and therefore inept, flier I am particularly well qualified to comment on the landing strut issue…
Considering the very repeatable pattern of the compression fracture, I’d consider minimizing the cutout, and/or using 2 plates per strut.
I have also added a Lego wheel & tire to help soften the landing.

Warm Regards – Bob G.
