I'm lucky. My airplanes usually don't last long enough for my fuel tanks to get a 'stiffy'.
I never quite understood these kinds of statements. Someone would say don't worry about how long the enigine will last since it'll most likely be damaged in a crash before it wears out anyway. I don't crash my helicopters that often and they're a lot harder to fly than fixed wing! What are you guys doin' wrong?
I don't understand how a motor can be destroyed that easy . I had a motor mount break and the motor fell from at least 200ft up . In the same plane I taught it how to do cart-wheels down an asphalt runway . Now that Saito82 is in my MOJO 40 . Better than Timex . Takes a liken keeps on Spinnin .

Im still fairly new to 3d so I fly 3 mistakes high . Thats why I got a big gasser , to put less strain on my eyes . LOL . Even with the altitude , if you aren't crashin once in a while your doing what I call , " putt putt flying" .
