Hypa Flaps - plastic clamp thread stripping

Went out on Sunday over rape stubble. Set up 20 half shell flocked deeks on spring sticks. No rotary this time since the week before they were flaring off with it out. Well, this time the birds wouldn't decoy even after a couple of pattern changes. So, out with the rotary with the hypa flaps and bingo, birds started to decoy nicely. Then after an hour, one of the hypa flaps looked insecure, so I stopped the rotary and attempted to tighten the clamp. The plastic thread had stripped, so had to change to dead birds. The birds continued to decoy and even were dive-bombing the rotary! I was a bit annoyed with the clamp thread stripping but decided to call UK Shootwarehouse on Monday. I spoke to a lovely lady and described the problem. She said that the design had now been changed and would send out two replacements. They arrived this morning. The new versions have a metal collar insert inside the plastic tube that the thumb screw threads into.

 

Thank you UK Shootwarehouse for great customer service. :good:

 

Cheers,
