Another thing I like about my Debonair is that I will fly it in winds that I wouldn't even consider with a balsa plane. In fact I was able to get out last March in pretty good winds (15 to 20 mph) and had a great time. I was the only one out there. I've had it for the last 5 years and only had one bad crash with it. It was an easy rebuild. I certainly don't consider myself careless that I destroy everything I put in the air and its my business if I have more than one plane.
