RE: ThunderTiger Rare Bear
Well I have read nearly all the postings and have pulled my Rare Bear down for mods. when I bought it off a friend I had no idea it was made by TT. I have had two other planes of theirs, a Tiger bipe 40 and a Decathlon ( bought within a week of each other) both had major wing failures in flight, luckily no one hurt. Both had inferior balsa / ply materials used, both had been designed by someone with no concept of stress or strength of air frames also lack of glue, cheap white glue used. knife cuts by assemblers in main spars etc. In short TT are making dangerous crap and should be stopped, there are plenty of other makers turning out good ARFs without these problems. Various friends and flying club members have had the same experiences with TT products. I havent finally decided what to do with mine, I will try talking to the importers first.[:@]
