Default RE: ThunderTiger Rare Bear

First time here. well anyhow here goes . i'm from OK,like everyone else we have gravity.
on a visit to family in in Utica. i stopped at by their local field with my stinger. when a gentleman pulls up with this Sleek white Rare Bear. yep 369.00 boxed w/ys120 i'm kinda getting the picture how much that first taxi on the field cost with air retacts. me and my little
60. ha. Love the looks of that plane RB, anyhow to get to the point , he lost it on the second round.
As all the people scattered in the pits. he let it get behind him' and as it was doing cart wheels and coming apart with every roll. Now he was pretty calm at the time. turned his radio off and walked back to the pits and sat down ,course his plane already beat him there. then he got up and started pickin' up the pieces. as i stood their and pondered the outcome i noticed that everything had come off the plane. body was still in tact few cracks fiberglas and plastic. but each wing that was in a different location was still intact . retracts were history ,never saw broken metal before on landing gear canopy and canopy cover still good. ys history , carb snapped from housing. everything on the inside of plane was toast. probably because he had
a 1/2 pound of steel with a hole drill in the middle tucked in the back of the plane. so as he was picking it up and throwing it in the trash cans i asked if he didn't mind me picking it out of the trash. anyhow with a little sanding she's almost ready. os91fx don't need all that 4s power if you've never flown one got a 61 on my dago red. just got one problem. that carbon fiber tube that holds the wings in line cost 140. for 36" and their two of them , one inner one outter. thats the cost of the plane. 120.00. keep the wheels down.
