Default 3W 200 continued

Well, 3W put a new crank in and sent back the engine and even threw in a new CF prop for my buddies 3W 200. I thought that was the right thing to do. I was actually kinda suprised he got a new prop out of them or anyone else for that matter. Good customer service.

Now, a connecting rod broke 1 week before the odessa imac contest.

He sent the engine to 3W over-night to hopefully get it back in time. This is twice it had to be sent in in the first 15 flights.

I know that any brand of engine can break or have things go wrong with them but my god. I guess he just has some extremely bad luck b/c he and I have both heard of alot of people never having a problem with their 3W.

I just hope he gets it back to go to th college station imac with me.
