Anyone having problems with this plane. Ours had the tail section of the fuse fail in the first few flights even with the crutch installed as requested by manufacturer. The only thing they would do is send us an updated version for an additional $400. Didn't seem like much of a deal to me, putting good money after bad. Our plane wasn't abused, just flown through typical pattern manuvers, not even any snaps. It failed just ahead of the stab. We're real lucky to have gotten it back on the ground. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem. No doudt, I don't recommend the airplane OR the company.
Did you use the factory supplied crutch or did you make your own? How about wing adjusters? Did you use them or did you use the factory method of installing the wings? How about rudder? Did you use the factory rudder with the factory supplied hinges or did you go with different ones?
