Default Sig 4* Big PROBLEM!

Yes, it was an ARF. A nice ARF. With an apparent faulty fuel stopper. Would've been next to impossible to fuel proof that comparment. No access hatch, and not enough room to get my hand in there.

With the luck I'm having in my last 3 flight hours, I'm about ready to put the whole works on Ebay, and call her quits. Two crashes, and now this. After many many trouble free hours with my trainer that I got when I started last September.

I tried to do everything right, by taking advice, and listening to others. I've done it all so carefully, and I thought, smartly. I went with the 4*for my second plane, and I could fly it. I built a Super Sportster, and I flew it, crashed it, and rebuilt better the 2nd time around. I bought a cheapo Lanier Dart, flew it, crashed it within 15 minutes. All this in my last three hours of actual stick time (stretched out over 2 months) Maybe I'm just not cut out for this hobby.
