I just talked to my friend corey. He had just got back from his first day at the field with his new superstar 40. His instructor told him to taxi the plane around his yard to further break in the engine. While he was doing the he said a gust of wind caught the plane and it took off! Then it hit a pole. So i figured that he didnt know what to do and it stalled and hit the pole. He said The prop is broken the spinner is cracked and the right side of the plane is crunched from the front to just past the firewall and the covering is ripped. He doesnt want to fix this plane and i am trying to talk him into selling it to me cheap as i know it can be fixed. I was planning on taking it to my hobbyshop and having it fixed(i will be getting m superstar x-mas, and have no real experience with thee planes) or sending it to someone on rcu who would be willing to fix it. I need an estimate on the price for the repairs. and if anyone is willing to fix it. He said he would probably just buy a whole new plane. But nothing else on this plane was harmed. The wing and everything is PERFECT. He just got this plane 3 days ago and put in 3 flights before the accident yesterday. Any feedback is helpful!
