Gronsta - sorry to hear about the TPro's, just put it down to experience. I go on the Aussie BBQ thread every day, a great bunch of guys, loads of help etc. One of them is sending me a Himax 2815 inrunner for my new EZ* to make it go vert - should be nice. It was them that put me on to Multiplex planes and I've never looked back. I've got the EZ* (3rd one), big EasyCub, Fox, Slow Stick, 2 Strykers, 2 Profiles, I Zagi, a 60in. Balsa Bushwacker made from plans thats a beauty, Cub, 4 Acipter Badius gliders, and a few others. And I just put an order in for a Piranha Hydro Plane (EPP) for those cra$$y wet windy days that you lot don't have. Watched Geelong thrash the Swans last night, brilliant!!!
See ya all, byeee.....
Oh, for those that don't understand Gronsta's lingo I have the Australian Dictionary available as an attachment. EG: Sheila=g/friend/wife/Bird. Drongo=not a nice name etc.......

the wires out the back are definitely a TowerPro motors weak point, havent tried 'soft string?' to tie them back yet, have used cable ties but that cut thru the last one. The motors with the anodized yellow base seem to be a lot hardier, for a couple of bucks more. BTW my mate with the Edge who had one bad crash (it was a beauty 
) has given up on it! I asked him if he had put it back together a week later and he said he wouldnt bother and he was looking for a new plane! What the!!! He had a quick go at gluing it back together and thought , easier to buy another! Im still trying to convince him to at least have a crack at it, got nothing to lose. Anyway will see how it goes, I may end up with a perfectly serviceable Edge!!
