Mine is no longer in existence. No, it didn't crash as one might expect. It was destroyed in a fire. Sure loved it, it flew well. I had a Zenoah G38 that I converted to electronic ignition (from magneto). It was the first plane I had built in years in which I put a lot of scale detail. It flew heavy, but predictably. And with that big thick wing, it still landed gently. I'd love to have another one, but Ever Soaring Models has raised it's prices to where it doesn't really stand out as a great deal anymore. Plus, the supplier, Troy Built Models, went out of business.
