OK, here we go....
maybe 3 weeks ago 16" fuel line gave a flame out at 20 feet off the ground, wow, landed hard and bent landing gear...
Then maybe 1 to 2 weeks ago, I ended up cutting in a custom window to install a 2oz header tank, and it seems to have solved the problem!!!


Then finally this latest news!!!!
Finally, after weeks of one issue after another(stahlled on take off and broke nylon screws and bent landing gear, then wind storm last week and afraid to maiden, then my only Jet flier not able to make it), But we finally got it into the air for the first time this eve, my 3D buddy did the maiden for me. we did very well. He took off and flew and did some stunts which had me a wreck...because I don't trust those 4 little nylon screws, but afraid to use metal screws because if there is a hard hit incident like the flame out last time, the only thing that broke was the nylon screws....

So anyway, he gave it to me and it seems more touchy to me than my other planes??? the 5 to 10 mph wind seems to make it subbenly lift or fall or seemingly cause a quick 1/4 roll sort of like I just hit the ailerons, but I didn't, so i have to fight her back, then landing was scary, it seems 20 times more touchy that my other planes, it will jump up real quick on up elevator on low rates, yuk... so it seems to take some real perfect fingers to not glich and over steer....

My third low pass at high speed caught some wind and it flipped up to a 1/4 left roll and drove it down at same time and my left wing tip just touched the top of the grass and scared us all at the same time... wow, they all thought there were seeing a discentegrated plane, but thank God it didn't catch and destroy it... man, that made me shake....

Then on my second landing, I got a slight down draft and I pulled back on the stick a little too much and it seemly caused it to drive harder in the grass landing strip and broke both rear landing gear wheels off, crap.... BUT at least the plane survived... so I am heading out to garage right now to bend new matching landing gear from the 3 foot spring steel rod I bought from the hobby shop this eve, I think it is 3/32" spring rod...

I also bought the hobby radius bending dies to put in vise, so they said heat red hot and bend, then heat and put into cold water asap to reharden it...?

NOTE: when it flamed out a few weeks back, the dead stick landing did bend the landing gear back about half way, so bending them back plus the other guy who owned it for years bending them, they seemed to break right off clean on my landing this eve, they seemed to break right off very easily...

My buddy said forget flaps and just use elevator, but DANG, that thing is hot and touchy, so scary for me still....

I wonder if I can use flaps to slow this hot plane down so I can land it slower and easier? OR will it stahl and roll and crash on me?

Thanks to all for the input thus far, keep it coming
Thank you
