Default RE: Typhoon 2 by ParkZone

I've been repairing my original Typhoon2. I hit so hard that I managed to break the black
flexible cover over the battery. I pulled one of the plastic Popsicle sticks loose from the
wing (glued back in with Sumo poly glue), and loosened up the carbon wing spars in both
wings.

I managed to ruin one of my aileron servos with the thin foamsafe CA I was using to wick
into the wing around the carbon fiber spar. It leaked into the servo bay on the wing, and
into the servo itself. Luckily, I've got a spare on hand.

I'm putting the three rotor custom CDR cool wind outrunner on the airplane during this
repair. Will post pictures later.

I haven't tried to fly the new airplane yet, but will soon. Broke the nose off my old one again,
hotdogging at low altitude, and got 'dumb thumbs'. Cartwheeled into the ground at high speed.

Thank you Parkzone!
