got to the school yard and had checked out the throws and all earlier this week,, but when I was ready to take off I noticed there wasnt enough elevator movement, so I take it back apart and one of the struts broke (first bad sign) I decided then to switch over to rubber bands and dowels when I got back home...anyway I bend the wires and get enough throw but it seems underpowered so instead of trying to take off I throw it , it climbs out slow so I turn it and it starts to drop,not bad but I cann tell I gotta go straight for a while to get some altitude,, the problem starts about here because I'm going straight the wrong way (towards the street)and I tried to climb too fast and it stalled without enough room to recover, but on the way down it hit a power line and took off half the elevator, the wing broke at the screw, yanked off the wheels, battery holder, bottom of the rudder and struts..gonna be a challenge to fix it..I think I need a little more power too.... ...Rog
