Hi all, Got the Angel on the air over the weekend, flies great. I wish I had taken someones advice and installed a canopy latch. I bought one, but had not installed it yet, and off course it failed, and the canopy is destroyed...
My Hobby Store tells me it might not be so east to replace it, but they'll work on it. Oh well, it was great while it lasted!

Anyone have a canopy laying around that you don't need

Sorry to hear that . . it's a shame, and I can't quite work it out. My canopy has never looked like falling off, although I have a friend whose did (while he was doing the IMAC 2 rolling circle in opposite).

I have had MANY flights with mine and EVERY flight has a number of snaps in it . . including 1 1/2 snaps from KE to KE (more recently). Never an issue, and the magnets still feel very strong when installing and removing the canopy . .

Strange . .

Cheers, JB
