I had two of the ARF's. The first was powered with the Magnetic Meyhem and was lost when I let it get directly overhead in the sun. Came straight in and destroyed everything electronic. Hitec made me a nice deal to replace everything except the motor and ESC. The second one lasted longer and was powered the same as the first. I lost that one when I tried to fly with a depleted battery. Flying speed bled fast and it fell out of the sky. Wing and fuselage destroyed. It's tough to try to repair a fiberglas fuselage. Since I'm a glutton for punishment, I have another in the box in the cellar and another Magnetic Meyhem.
