It holds up pretty good. I had an issue with one of the pins on the esc. I had just taken off, about 15 ft high, climbing out vertically, lost all power. No throttle, no radio, A/C tailslides back down, just as the nose drops to a level attitude (about 7 ft off the ground) the right wing contacts the vertical support on a mailbox. Of course it couldn't have landed on the soft grass below the mailbox, it had to hit something that was unforgiving. 15 min. to repair the wing and correct the pin issue, and it flies no different and the repair is almost unidentifiable.
