Hey Guys, that is ironic. I am training a guy at my field with a Nextstar which by the way is a great trainer once you build it over. It is far from a RTF aircraft IMHO. The trainer this student bought was brand new, because I was there when he bought it. It came out of the box with a lose motor mount screw and lose motor hold down bolt, lose muffler, the plane was extremely tail heavy and had a horizontal stab that was terriblly lose even if it was tighten all the way. I disconnected the AFS from the beginning and it has never been plug in. I removed the airbrakes as it would constantly try to climb in level flight even with a fairly good bit down of elevator was trimmed into it to compensate for it. The student wasn't going to be learning to land soon so it wasn't helping then anyway. I would highly recommend going over the plane with a fine tooth comb and recheck every bolt, screw, snap, etc... The wings were epoxyed together since they became lose in flight, but luckly they stayed together and the horistontal stab was also glued in place to remove the slack from the bolts not holding properly. The plane flys very well now, but is no where near RTF out of the box as the company states. These companies are mass producing these items, but are literally skipping steps to keep up with production and that will cost some poor soul later when it crashes due to the motor coming off or worse the motor flying off the plane into a crowd while on the ground trying to tune. Students don't always know the proper procedures of the hobby when they are new and that could hurt someone if not themselves. Locktite should be a industry standard when building these aircraft.
