Default RE: CMPro Extra 330L 50 size

me and my dad got given one of these planes each for x-mas last year, dad built his with 55ax and i left mine in box, and thank bloody god i did!!!, its honestly the worst flying plane i have attempted at flying to date. landing is a nightmare. and ohh yeah makesure you check for the gluejoints where the wing tube enters the wing, this plane only got 3 flights, and that was only doing circuits trimming it out and about 2 knife edges along the strip, and WHAM!!!, the right wing ripped off as the glue had let go around the wing tube brace, so in goes a $250 lawn dart on its 3rd flight, if you want my advice, stick with the twist

Now im not bagging cmpro, as i have there 140 giles, 140 extra, katana 50, extra 90 size, and they have all been great quality and flying planes, but in all honestly i think they made a very big mistake with this 50 size one, it is just WAYY to heavy for its size and the wings are tiny. and it needs around 100 grams of nose weight if you use a 46 engine
