I have a DP 330L w/ Brison 3.2. I have been very happy with it and it 3D's very well. I have slowly been increasing the abuse it gets and so far, it has been rock solid.
Has anyone pulled one of these apart in the air? I know of some cases of flutter, but those involved using the 2-56 pushrods. I am more interested in someone who has done a power on blender, full power walls, etc. Will it hold up and how much abuse have you doled out?

Hey,
I have one and it fell apart in mid air doing a trimming pass!
The fuse broke in the aft canopy area. I was able to land it. I think it stayed together because of the pull-pull cables for the rudd.&elev.held it together..I was only using a OS 1602stroke.
I'm still waiting for the replacement parts.i was told at the WRAM show 5-6weeks It's now almost May.
Peace out

Sorry to hear about your plane. It sounds like something happened to it somewhere along the line to crack the fuse. I have put mine through A LOT more abuse than a simple trim pass. Hope you get a new one soon.

I'm telling you the truth!!! The canopy flew off,it flew by me and I noticed the tail wiggling I flew a lap and landed it.This thing flys great.To bad their service stinks!!!I only have about 1doz. flights.
Did anyone notice any Tiny-Tiny bugs when they recieved their plane? They were like a red color sorta like nat size..

Thats funny....I though I was the only one. Mine came with bugs in the box as well. I was working on mine last night for the first time and noticed the little things flying around. I just assumed they got in from outside some how but I'm sure now they came from the plane packaging.
