Default GP cap 231 ex ??

I had one back when they first came out in 1998. I flew the pants (both literally and figuratively) off it for about a season and a half. Glued my wing the upside down way. Used originally a Saito .91 in it and replaced it with an MDS 68 - a better choice. I also moved my battery pack back behind the servos to improve it's performance. Aside from a crappy covering job and fixing the LG block atleast once, it flew great! I loved it. It met it's demise when the battery pack broke loose from its mooring and came unplugged in a wing down pirouette. It didn't stop when I did. Ah well.... For the record, I didnt have any snapping problems. I also didn't try to land it at a stall either. It's an aerobatic plane.
