My girlfriends uncle gave me a Soarstar, with a radio set up and all that he and a couple of others had learned on ( has a good bit of epoxy on it) but the problem came that he lives 5 hours away, and where i live, the nearest flying field/school/instructor is 2 hours away. After reading RCU post/tips for a couple of months, i downloaded fms and learned how to fly with plane comin at you etc... I know it is advised not to fly your first flight alone, but I went today, and actually didnt do bad at all. I hand launched, and flew the plane around for a minute or two, and came down for a landing, and hit an ant pile. i didnt realize the motor was loose, so a took the ants off and threw her back into the air.. well this time after like 15 seconds of flight, the motor twisted loose, and chewed up the wing. I was just wondering if i should fly it as it, fix it (with a playing card), or do i need to buy a new wing (see attatched photo) . for my first flight i was proud of myself, and if not for all of your tips and advise it would not have happened.
Thanks a million, COREY
