Default RE: thunder tiger pros, help

After xchanging the fuel tank out, I took the escapade up for a flight.  It's a smooth flying airplane.  I was executing a loop when the engine cut, it was completely vertical.  Deadstuck it.  I fiddled it and took it up again.  Cut on takeoff 25 ft, and it dropped like a rock.  I was able to put it on the landing gear.  <div>
</div><div>You ever see those downhill skiiers who have such high vertical drops where their teeth/face smash into their knees?  That's how it looked after it landed.  The landing gear &amp; wheels bent into the wings, nicking it, leaving the landing gear bent flat.  This engine has been a source of frustration and fun.  However, it has deterred me from enjoying the escapade.  Anyone have an extra set of escapade landing gear?</div><div>
