It's probably being dropped for thr Venus. I enjoyed mine. The gear blocks were not glued in well, so I added some epoxy. I sealed the hinge gaps with clear tape. I ended up with my CG aft of the recommended place. It flies nice, and can do really graceful manuvers. It takes a while to bleed off speed on approach, so set up pretty far out, or be prepared to go around. Many people had real trouble with this plane, but mine was fine after the gear block thing...
