Undoubtedly, any light you might shed on this remarkable mystery will be greatly appreciated by all concerned!
the cowl is plastic and hit the ground nose first when the battery died mid air-now i have a discharge buzzer connected to my lipo so it wont happen. And the missing paint is because of the crazy thin layer it came with and not warming the tape before removing the blue tape. The newbie things you learn flying.
