    That is an ingenious repair! Absolutely brilliant! I had a Wind Raider as a kid, and I remember the wings were such a weak point, I lost count of the amount of times it got glued, but a fun toy (as with all MOTU toys). You never fail to impress. Great job

    Mine also has a broken anchor rope.

  • @michaelharms8899
    @michaelharms8899 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for your great show. Recently I have found a way to get a new cord to the winch. You need a bended wire to glue the cord to the outside of the reel. If you look inside the Wind Raider you can see the reel (white) with a circumferential notch. This is the place were you have to glue the cord. The if the glue bonds wind the cord 1 1/1 times.

    @Portal2099 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice restoration. The wings on mine from when I was a kid, the wing itself cracked rather than the pegs , so I'm not sure how to fix that. Also I was thinking that instead of attaching the hook to the skull piece, would it work to maybe glue the string onto the front wheel and as it rotates it winds it back up around the spoke. Just a thought. Awesome vid!
