Default VQ Models

I was very impressed with the plane when I first opened the box at the local hobby shop. Loooks very scale and realistic but it lacks STRUCTURAL STRENGHY. I put about a good 15 flights and im unhappy to report that yesterday afternoon, in front of dozens of people at the local flying field, my wings folded as I was flying level at full throttle. All I could do was kill the engine to at least save my Saito 91 and radio gear. That is the last time I deal with a VQ model. I have been flying for about 2 years and have had 10 glow powered planes and have never had this happen to me. The quality of the wood is very fragile and can be damaged very easily.
