Brian,

I'm glad to hear that the situation is resolved successfully as I knew it would from the beginning. I don't think anyone here wanted to slander Ultra-RC. You handled this problem in a very admirable way, just as I knew you would from my previous dealings with you. My main concern was to share information with people flying the Icepoint so they could keep them flying. We understand that Ultra-RC doesn't build the planes; but there is alot of experience with ARF's in general that indicate that most of them need beefing up in certain areas.

I have one Icepoint flying, and another in the box. Me and Frank are big fans of this airplane, and the service I've received from Ultra-RC has been outstanding. I will still recommend the Icepoint to other people that ask me about it (unless they are flying in my class in District 3. . .hehehe).

To answer your question about "Why did it fail that day"? . . . . Saturday was the day that the Pattern Gods decided to show up for a buffet in Andersonville, GA. Frank's airplane was one of eight casualties that day. . . three midairs and two single ship losses. . . . We were joking about possibly having to call the contest at 4 rounds not due to bad weather, but lack of airplanes.

Brian, since you have everyone's attention here, why don't you tell us all a little about the new Icepoint coming in September?? Will the new 2-piece wing be compatible with the old plane? Will it have a firewall for a Hyde mount?
