The preceding pic of my plane sure looks nice. First I'll admit, it was a nice flying sport plane but had way to many flaws I could see when flying combat. I "thought" it flew fast till I went up against planes with 60 size engines and I got my tail feathers blown off. The carrage worked as long as the wheels went straight but the flaw there was I had no way of guiding it straight. Once it went off to one side, that was it, then I had to scramble to get the engine started and get in the air within the time frame left. Tried hand launching but that was hard to do, really had to give it a toss or in the ground it went. I finally tried a 40 size engine and that improved it, flying and launching. By the way, as I type this I am missing a chunk of flesh from my wrist because of a bad hand launch. Yesterday after making some changes, something went wrong and at full power, in the ground it went. Next plane will look like hell, be made of any junk I can find and hopefully will take more abuse then this one could take. As for combat, I'm hooked, it was fun.
