Its hard to beat these SPADs! If you dork it - typically you just check the prop & batteries, fill it up again, and go! I did break the engine mount on my PQHOR Sunday, but I cut mine way down to cut out some weight, and I 'dumb-thumbed' it doing tail touches in 25 MPH gusts

I would never dare to do that with one of my balsa Fun-Flys! The SPADs don't fly as good, but you can't beat the durability!

It develops the
"NO FEAR!" flying technique!
