RE: elevator induced snap.
I've been flying mine for a couple of years now and she's a little B*&%ch , but I love her to bits, she does'nt half keep you on your toes, if at any moment you put in to much elevator , she's snap like a cajun camen !
I would't swap her for the world, and I manged to smash her up good , more times than I care to remember, mainly on landing and coming in too slow, you definitely have to "fly" her in !
