My feeder tube broke off today at the field. Like from the body.

Do you have a Dark iR3? If not, then they will replace and have to pay for a new one.

The body is threaded and I think it just came loose and off.
*PICS ON THE WAY*

I just got it home and didn;t get a chance to look at it at the field and I didn't see that it had threads, so I just screwed it back in, so to answer your question no they wern't. But It was so scary, I though I had lost her for a minute.

wow, losing your ball detent, the feed tube falling off and feeding problems. Sounds like you had a rough day.

note: If you're not going to Locktite the feed tube back on, you might want to put a tiny drop of oil on the feed tube threads before screwing it back on.
Sometimes, when the threads are dry, they tend to "gall" and "freeze" in place when you try to screw it back on. It'll almost have the same effect as cross-threading the feed tube and the body threads will be in worst condition.

Too late now. . . Thanks for the advice, I think I might lock tight it, if i unscrew it.
