RE: 1/4 scale Pfalz DXV
I've caught a wing tip on a tree before, twice to be exact. The first was a VK Cheroke back in 1975, the second was a Tanzer Cabin wing two years ago, the Cheroke was totaled, it contacted the ground upside down and backward, the Tanzer damaged the tip that hit the tree and shortened the other tip about a foot when it slammed into the ground after being spun sideways after the "brush" with the very small scrawny leafless nearly invisible sapling that had volunteered at the boundry fence of the field, I never saw it, it's gone now, ( can you imagine ).
