Three weeks ago I was flying at half throttle upwind with the UCD-.40 Saito-72. Right as I was overhead I heard the horizontal tail snap ,,, saw the flutter and prepared to say goodbye to my bird. But to my amazement I was able to pull into a clumsy knife edge and by using the rudder as an elevator I acually brought the plane around into final just off the paved runway . As I got about a foot or so from the ground I used aileron and got gear down position again before letting her fall the last 12 inches.
Only damage was a sheared off gear and belly pan. Didn't even break the prop. What a forgiving plane !!!
I called Tower Hobbies and they instructed me to remove all my hardware and send the fuse back to them for a complete and free replacement. My wing was undamaged so I just needed the fuse.

Now before you think to yourselves ,,, "either this guy is a great RC pilot?? Or a liar???" All I can say is I didn't believe it myself .
I've never seen a plane that could keep flying with only one horizontal stab.

Solution ? Spend the $10.00 and install some tail wire bracing .
