RE: Great Planes Reactor in Flight Elevator Failure on First Flight
Glad you got the bird down in one piece. My UCD .46 had a left horizontal stab failure in level flight at half throttle...and I'm only
using a magnum 52 two cycle. No flutter heard prior to this either......the break was close to the fuselage and appears
to be soft balse leading edge. Contacted GP and they haven't heard of any failures on the UCD. Now I've seen three on the 46
UCD ....one the entire tail came off and the other the covering rippped right off the main wing. I am going to install a solid
balse Horizontal stab on the rebuild. Good luck.
