RE: U Can Do 3D
What the fu-----!!?? The cowl looks perfect,must have been a perfect flat spin! However, the rest of the plane-R.I.P. Not to minimize your pain,I know its the worst part of the hobby and Ive been there way too many times myself. 3-D baby!!,first 15 years flying, only a few crashes,last 5 years doing 3-D,crashing all the time,usually less damage due to the speed but still hurts. I'm slowly going to gas myself but am having so much fun & still learning with the Do. I will always keep one because I can get low and not worry too much about $$$ and safety issues. It has taken me further than I expected at first,but I did have to make a few mods to it. People at my field used to knock the Do& me too but (mainly because they have bigger,nicer looking,more $$$ planes)but I'm turning them around with the low torque rolls,harrier landings,rollers,slow HA KE & a lot of other cool stuff. I'm not giving that up unless I can do all that on another plane,and I dont even care about what the others are saying,now if they were doing more than me,maybe I would listen.
P.S. : Get a 60 size Do,they are better IMO
