My Modeltech Magic Extra was a perfect example, I had all kinds of issues to deal with during assembly, as did others that I've read about , but many other people didn't have those same problems.
That thing was a pain to put together. Had to add all sorts of wood and glue to make sure it wouldn't break. Putting the servos in that tight space was not easy. There just was not a whole lot of room for anything in that fuse (battery, radio etc). Well once it was built I forgot all about the problems and it flew nicely. But then the covering started to some off. Anyone that has this problem, iron it real good and seal the seems with Luster coat clear. Otherwise it will all peel off. It does fly nicely though. It just has the typical horrible coupling of a fun fly.
