Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FMS Futura V2 Main Landing Gear System compatible with other RC aircraft models? — No, this landing gear system is specifically engineered for the FMS Futura V2 and V3 airframes only. Attempting to fit it to other aircraft models may result in poor fitment, compromised stability, or structural issues. Always verify model compatibility before ordering landing gear components.
- What should I do if my existing landing gear is damaged? — If your Futura V2 or V3 has suffered landing gear damage, the FMSRP115 replacement system offers the quickest path to getting back in the air. This genuine FMS component will restore your aircraft to original specification without requiring modification or adjustment.
- How long does the landing gear typically last? — The lifespan of any landing gear system depends on flying frequency, landing surface conditions, and the care taken during operations. Hard surfaces and aggressive landings will wear the gear faster than gentle operations on grass fields. Regular inspection and maintenance help maximise component life.
- Can I upgrade my existing landing gear to this system? — The FMSRP115 is designed as both a replacement for damaged gear and as an upgrade option for Futura V2 and V3 pilots seeking improved stability characteristics. If your aircraft currently has a different landing gear configuration, consult FMS documentation or contact RC Model Shop to verify compatibility before purchasing.
- What warranty and support does this component include? — The FMS Futura V2 Main Landing Gear System is covered by FMS's 90-day warranty from the date of delivery, with electronic accessories receiving extended support. Additionally, customers are entitled to long-term official technician support from FMS for technical queries and troubleshooting.
- What is the return policy if I need to send this back? — RC Model Shop offers a comprehensive 30-day return policy for new and unused products purchased directly. The policy covers defective items, dead on arrival (DOA) units, and products with shipping damage or missing parts, providing peace of mind with your purchase.

If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.

Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
