Default Which ARF? VMAR or ModelTech?

VMAR = plastic bag full of woodworm dust, formers and ribs shattered by having spars hammered into holes that are too small, front bulkheads split, etc etc.

And if that is not bad enough, wait till you fly it. I have never witnessed a VMAR plane last 10 flights. They tip stall and spin in uncontrollably from any height. The main UK mag did a review of a VMAR a couple of years ago, on the first flight it spun in and they had to get a second model to complete the review.

I had the misfortune to briefly own the VMAR CAP231EX, it rolled if I touched the elevator and it lasted 5 flight before it entered an uncontrollable spin from way up. Its the only model I have ever been glad to see smashed to bits.

Stop buying VMAR and let the free market do its function - either VMAR gets its act together pretty damn fast or it goes bust.
