Just noticed how big a droop I am having on the Saturn arm. When all the planets are lined up (As in the pic on the mag) it quite obvious as it looks skew-if to all the others including Uranus. I think the extra weight is pulling on the gear on central shaft and the gear has an awful lot of play in it in all directions at the central shaft compared to the other gears. I have pulled it apart several times and still can't get rid of the play.
I have just rang Eaglemoss and the lady there seemed to know about this straight away indicating a known issue and referring me back to my local newsagent to get them to order a new kit from part 28 through Gordon & Gotch. Have just called the local newsagent and he will see what can be done. Does anyone else have this problem, are there any other solutions?
Thanks
PeterM.
