P-Hawk Mini Question...
      #31024 - 06/25/02 02:19 AM (63.173.170.3)

How do you keep the big jump jets on the back of the P-Hawk on the miniature?

I have a lance of P-Hawks that have either one or both of those things that have fallen off...any help on how to keep them on would be welcome.

I always used superglue, I have not lost a jet yet.

If that doesn't work use some duct tape.

I use Super Jet. According to the bottle it's a "medium viscosity professional grade cyanoacrylate glue."

I used to use super glue but my minis kept losing limbs, etc. and needing repair then some of the guys in my group told me about this stuff. When this stuff dries only a good solvent will take the mini apart safely.

Should be able to find it in a hobby store. That's where I got mine, at a Hobbytown USA.

Try getting a pin-vice with a 1/16 in drill. Drill two holes in the jet and two matching holes in the mini. Then use two small bits of the antenna wire that seems to come with all mini's and glue them into the holes on either the mini or the JJ. when this has dried, glue the JJ onto the mini. should hold. Also works for Thunderbolt arms, broken Marader arms, ect.
