Sadly, after three years and over 300 flights, my 51 disintegrated on a high-speed pass today. The tail departed from the fuselage about 30 feet off the deck at WOT. It's fixable but I think it's time to replace the airframe with another if I can find it. The Eflite power 15 and 40 lite ESC are fine, as well as the battery(2200MaH 3 cell 65c thunder power). It was crazy fast with this set up, the guys at the field said it was the fastest electric they had ever seen. They thought it had to of been doing close to hundred. I was running an APC 12 x 12 prop, It was good for 4 1/2 minutes of screaming fun!

Off to find a replacement airframe...
