Sorry to hear about that BVAB47... Now I'm Nervous about mine... But that's great to hear that Ace is sending you a new one, and that it's a great flyer. Out of curriosity, ho did you balance come out??? Mine has a 91AC on the front, and needs almost a pound of lead to get it to balance according to the manual. Also good tip about putting pull pull on the tail wheel.... I was thinking it would be squirly on the ground with those springs.
