Beware of a quick snap to the right AGGHHHHH!!!!!

Yes, on my 7th flight the little brio re kitted itself....

I was doing a stall turn, I was pulling after the downleg while slowly advancing the throttle. It pulled up about 15° droped the right wing with a little lunge, then quickly snaped right - right into the deck. it was a faily violent snap and it felt like I had no control.....

I have a old Great Planes Cap 40 that is over weight with a satio 91, that plane has the whole elevator snapping issue, but nothing like this.... Because of my experience with the cap, I know how the elevator feels when you are pulling and you get that feeling like if you pull any more something bad is going to happen. As I was pulling on that downleg, a friend standing behind me heard me say "it's going to snap" and wham... it did 3 snaps to the right from about 20 feet, I was able to start recovery but it impacted rather flat smashed the fuse sides, broke the cheap fiberglass sock and cheap carbon wingtubes....

The canopy and wings are in good shape - anyone looking for parts?

it looks repairable - but not worth the trouble. because it flys too crappy for my taste....

All in all I have to say that the Little Brio was a total dispointment, and would not recomend this plane to anyone.... It is over weight at 32.5 oz and flys too crappy, yea it does a lot of fun little tricks okay but overall it doesn't fly as well as the Quiet Storm. My old Storm did everything way better....

Luckly all my gear seems to be okay, I don't think I will be getting a replacement Brio. If I get anything it will be a new Storm...

IMHO don't waste your money here, if you want a little look a like pattern plane get the Storm.... It's lighter by almost 6 oz. and flys more like a 2m ship.
