Wow.... Crazy...
Those wings would have been a chore to try to fix!...
The flying you described, is what I would have expected...
You could power most anything with marginal to hardly anything at all, and once it was up a flying, things can go pretty well...
It is when you get into trouble, the extra power in neccesarry to get you out...
Seeing those wings, make me nervious to fly mine now!...[

], because parts are nill...
Thank you for your insight Stagger.
Justin.
