Default speared my new Twister

I had a Model Tech Twister powered by a 61 4stroker, Was realy getting in to the hang of this bird, It was about my 6th flight and I had just come out of a fast down spiral with a hard pull out. I leveled out and just did a slow fly over, then hit the power only to see the LH horizontal stab flutter, snap off taking the vertical stab with it. All I could do is kill the engine and let nature take over..
Now looking for a new fuse....

There was a mod to do with the horiz and Vert stabs if you were going to fly it hard by adding CF rod to stop them from fluttering, but this was to be fitted when I was going to push her.....
Bit late..
