Default RE: Ultrastick .80 update request

Been flying mine for 6+ months now, I will tell you the problems I have had.
The Firewall should be pined, mine pulled loose, my landing gear riped out, and the tail broke off.
I am not complaining about the plane, it is my fav. I have a Saito .91 on the nose, pulling a 14x6 APC
Verticle is unlimited. The Landing gear tore loose when I nosed it over on landing due to a dumb thumb.
The tail has a week joint just in front of the Horz. Stab. There is a ply former in this area, and it is a week
spot in the fuse. I have reinforced mine with 1/16" ply on both sides. I fly this plane VERY hard, I have not
had any problem with the wing dowles, or bolts. So to sum it up, everyone at our field that has one has the
same 3 issues. The firewall, the landing gear plate,and the fuse at the Horz Stab.
Hope my experiance helps, have fun as this has to be the most fun flying plane I have ever owned.
The only thing close is my Funtanna 90S with a Saito 150 on the nose.
