Default RE: Aerobird Swift problems.

Swift - YUK - My worst plane, eventually having totalled and rebuilt it several times moved onto something else and thank goodness.
Had a Super Cub before (fantastic learner) and then this thing that tip stalled horribly, try replacing all the electrics into a new fusalage and connecting the rear Servo easily, have never had anything so hard to work on. Did much the same as someone else movd both the ailerons up just to get it to head away from the ground on take off, have gotten warped wings as brand new replacements and how I managed to get it down on the ground without totalling it again to take the wings back to the LHS and get a refund I'll never know but luck not judgement. Then again nothing whatsoever you could see wrong with the plane (landed it checked everyting over and launched again) and just wouldn't fly true evetually causing it to spiral into the ground for the last time. It got so bad I thought it can't be me so I bought something else a Multiplex Minimag and gues what it wasn't me !!!!!
The aerobatics are terrible, try rolling it at less than 30,000 ft, there are much better built planes, take knocks better and will take you to a higher level / perform better, neater aerobatics !!!
To recap where I started worst plane I've had !!!!!!!!!!!
