Default Exceed FA-18 Hornet

I recieved my F-18 Hornet a couple of days ago. It looked get until I took it out of the box. The left wing was damged during shippimg. I figured, Well I finally got it so i'll just fix it, and I did. After putting the plane together and charging the battery, I tried to power the plan up to set my throws. As soon as I plugged in the battery, the plane started twitching very badly with no or very intermintant input response. I unpluged the battery and inspected the electronic of the plan. I found the the aleron y harness was cut on both sides of the fuseladge and the reciever antenna was also cut as well.I checked the BEC and it was smoking hot. Needless to say disapointment was an understatment. I have done a lot of business with you and, fortunately never had a problem. This plane was ordered by my wife as my christmas present, and now, there's a problem!? The problem here is that I already assembled the plane, the electronics are no good. The BEC, I discovered is under rated to handle the load on this plane. Cut wires and harness!? What do I do?

I feel an appropriate reslove to this would be to send me another plane and tell me what you want me to do with this very nice looking staic display. I am confident that you will make this right. Thank you
