My experience of the hype is that the UC plate is a little weak so I beefed that up after i ripped it out. however then I had a heavy landing and the reinforced plate then pushed the fire wall out. Had it repaired and now a fantastic plane. I chopped the tips off and am thinking of mounting dual elevator servos. Two mini digital servos. Am running JR 8411's and fromeco Li-ion 2200mah through a 6v regulator. Look at pic it looks a little strange without tips but knife edge is alot better.
