Default RE: Hangar 9 60 size P-47

I know only 2 of you responded to this post but i thought i should update.

Got everything mounted and ready to go. Engine was purring like a kitten. got her off the ground trimmed out was making a scale turn........ then half the Horizontal stab ripped off the plane and spun into the concrete at 3/4 trottle........
from the looks of it the balsa was not strong enough. Snapped right where the Fuse ended. the YS engine, receiver, battery. and half the servos are now gone. I am out almost a grand all together because of Faulty Workmanship.
