and btw the whole fuselage including the taped part is as strong as new.... I just put tape on it because the convering was peeling due to the crash and I didn't want the rest to come off due to air getting under it.. and just a few LITTLE peices of balsa broke... I mean if you asked the safety commission to ground my plane due to that... your an idiot considering I've flown that plane with the repairs and it flies just like new and is just as strong as brand new... so I mean i don't see the big deal. and if it was gorunded I'd just go fly it at my buddies farm so whatever
