I was given a 60 size biplane crash (a Lew Andrews Aeromaster
) It is a trash can case for most people but it is such a hard to find bird it WILL be rebuilt. also it can be a riot to build with other thing such as gutter pipes (SPADS) and base ball bats for fuses (combat planes) A trainer wing can be easily rebuilt no matter how bad if you remembered crash rule # 1 PICK UP ALL THE PIECES! balsa likes to go back together just do it STRAIGHT.
I agree. I found a Seagull Extra 300 EP in one of the trash cans, its fuselage was crushed and some bulkheads were missing. What parts that were left were stuffed, along with the owner's manual, in the cab. The aluminum rod was bent beyond repair, and a wing tip was crushed (it must have hit a pole). I fixed it and sold it to someone who needed another ARF, at less than half the cost of a new one. The model was holding up and flew very well, the last time I saw it.
