Default Kyosho G-Trick Durability?

The glass work is great on the G-Trick. I haven't flown with the wheel pants on, mainly because I've been to busy and at times lazy to put them on! We fly off a grass runway that has been covered in astroturf (thank you Atlanta Falcons!). Sometimes I land it in the grass to get it slowed down after landing and it does well - but I suspect with the wheel pants on it may bog it down.

wheel pants don't seem too thin to me. due to some carelessness in handling, I've chipped the 'glass on the belly pan in some small parts. that's it.

I love my G-Trick and been contemplating another if the price at Tower keeps on dropping (knock on wood).

I'd suggest dual elev servos or a setup like Central hobbies has (bellcrank on elevator). But then you'd have to hack up the fuse to get it in there. That's why I went for the dual elev servos (9202, work great).

It gets lots of oooohs and ahhhhs at the field. Knife-edge like you wont believe with almost no coupling. Snaps start and stop when you want. fly it first on low rates and then go from there.

Move tank to CG.

here are some websites to help you out:
