Default U Can Do 3D -- WARNING!!!

Originally posted by trailingedge
I wintessed the same thing happen at our local flying club this weekend. The plane was brand new and on it's second pass at moderate throttle when we saw the right horizontal stab fluttering. The pilot tried to bring it in just as the left one gave way and the plane went nose first into the end of the runway. I was seriously looking at this arf until this incident. I'm not so sure after hearing from others with this problem.
This is why it is so important to be willing to send back the broken pieces! If there is a quality problem, GP cannot fix it without your help!

Come on! Someone needs to send in the tail from one of these models so that maybe they can save a bunch more people from the same grief!
