What you say is true, what ive seen. Ive aattended a few combat meets as a spectator and learning the tricks from chris. What was a good selling point was the durabilty of these planes. Some of these people have chunks taken out on a wing and still beable to fly. I do need to stock up is the tail stabilizers. the vertical stab is usually the first to go after a mild mid-air or a hard landing.

The econocote did cover very well, i thought differant after i saw how thin it is. i allready ripped a small section of it trying secure the wing servo.

Ive finished trimming the plane today. Ive added a little bit more throw in the ailerons and that just made a world of differance. I also had to put a little bit more throw in the elevator since it wasn't very responsive due to cg being a little too forward. But, I thought ill keep it there till i get a little bit more experience with this fast plane.
