Default RE: GP Cap 232

Well, I received my Cap today only to open the box and find a totally destroyed fuselage. It looks like someone put it in the box all busted up. I can't blame this one on UPS. I called Tower and they will be e-mailing me a return ups sticker. I was hopening to have this plane ready by the first of June. Doesn't look like this is going to happen now. I agree with you Kochj, I think a big part of people having more problems with glow than gas is the inexperience. I recently bought my first gas engine, used. No one at my club flies gas, shoot I never saw a gas engine until I bought this one. Since I bought it used I didn't get a manual or any instructions, but by tuning my glow engines I knew exactly how to adjust the carb on the gas engine. When I started in the hobby there were many dead stick landings until I learned about correct carb adjustments. Back to glow, I haven't had a dead stick on the last 4 or 5 glow engines I have bought.
