I have know 5 people with 6 Fly Eagles as one person tried two of them. Every one of them suffered structural failure and crashed within the first 13 flights. The word record in south Florida is 12 flights until severe structural failure. Everyone shows how great they look out of the box but I would like to see some post from someone who has 50 or 100 flights on one.
I have well over 100 flights on my 1/8 FEJ F-16 and its going on 3 years now. There airframe looks exactly the same (other than the dings I've put in it myself) since I bought it. The only problem I ever had was the gear cylinders leaking. That was fixed with a little teflon tape under the O-rings. I did change out the pipe to a Tams though. I still don't trust their pipes.
