I reciently purchased a white and orange Falcon 120. On the first flight the engine quite and I put it through a tree resulting in damage to the right wing. I have emailed Nitro models as to parts avaliability with no response. The question is, are replacement parts avaliable or will I have to replace the entire model? Also I was running a new GMS 12o with three blade 14/7 pusher prop, where as the model appeared to good power acceleration was slow and I felt more pitch would be desirable. What prop would be recommended.
Thanks.

Re: Damage

I'd PM John here about this.

How much damage was done?

Any way to repair it?

Re: GMS

Well the 1.20 uses a recommended 16x8 prop, soooo ideally a 14x9x3 would be a good match... or removing a blade something like a 14x10x2... though I don't know of anyone who makes such an animal...

Zinger does have a 14x8x2, which might spin a bit faster and unload better.

Thanks for your response.
The wing was sheared of just outside of the boam. Would not trust a repair. I will try the props you suggested when the wing issue is resolved.
