Default RE: BME Cap Manic

the fliton extra 330 freesyle is an exellent plane. a os 50 would be a good match. most people are getting between 5.5 and 6.5 lbs ..

I have a cap maniac. Im running a YS 110. it is a great flying plane but Ive had issue after issue with construction, covering, cowl paint is still not dry after almost a year, the hardware is totally useless(i used all dubro). the covering is coming off all over. the wing had a MAJOR failure after a hard harrier landing.. after taking it apart i found out it is VERY weak super soft balsa with little glue. another guy on the cap thread said his broke in a blender. the stab also needed bracing.. Its a shame too because it is a exelent flying plane

my wing is rebuilt and i will fly it untill it meets its doom but i will not buy another.
