I fyou like wood working might I suggest a Tower Trainer kit or something similar. I believe I saw the kit in their latest flyer for under 50$. You just need some covering and glue. I would build a wood trainer from a kit in your situation. Unless the old airframe is trash. Just because it got broken does not mean it is trash. Now that the shock is over take a hard look at the old plane. Chances are that it may be salvageable. Or at least the fuse can be fixed. You mentioned it is only broken in half. That sounds repairable to me. I have fixed all of my Boo-Boo's. If you are not sure find a good builder in your area and ask for some help. Or post questions here. We can help you. I suggest you carefully peel the covering and thourougly inspect the damage then make your decisions. I am wishing you all of the best.
