Default RC Allen Gyros

Sometime back I got tired of fighting Aircraft Quality Instruments trying to
get a Gyro Horizon that worked, so I purchased a new RC Allen Horizon. This
was April of 2002.

Guess what--- the horizon failed in flight last week. The warrantee was one
year. Upon removal, I found a part rattling around inside the instrument. I
returned it to the factory with a note, that even though the warrantee had
expired, I would expect the instrument to last longer than 18 months. I
further explained that the horizon could be considered as a crucial
instrument that should be relied upon, and parts falling off inside is
unacceptable.

We'll see how they treat me. I'll report back what the factory says.

Maybe the gyro gods just don't want me to have a working horizon. G
