Check out my review of the UCanDo EP right here on RCUniverse
Obviously the plane is not indestructable, but it is signifigantly more robust than your typical rigid foamie or balsa plane. Dang thing wiggles like a funoodle, but flies just fine nonetheless. I've dorfed the thing in more times than I can count, and the worst thing that happened was a little tear in the wing skin around an aileron servo. Glue gun or regular CA makes a quick-n-easy fix.
A piece of advice: Do NOT attempt to "stiffen" or "beef" the plane up. Many people have, and it only hurts the flying characteristics and durability of the airplane.
Also keep in mind that the construction techniques may be different than what you're used to. Sometimes people get set in their ways and think CAing sticks of balsa together is the "only" "right" way to build. Hot gluing foam may be a bit of a culture shock, but believe me, it works.
