Looks to me like the spar tube broke, but how? You need to give us more info. Don't know how to help.

Yep, it's a broken stab wing tube. About the only way you can do that is by levering the stab up and down while trying to put it on or take it off. The tube to tube fit was probably too tight, and rather than enlarge one or reduce the other, they tried to force it.

Next time, either enlarge the opening inside the stab a little, or use some 400 or 600 grit wet and dry sandpaper and carefully sand the aluminum tube by rotating the tube while you sand it. You want a snug fit. Not loose, not tight.

SkyDude, that was as good as it gets.

If it happened in the air, it had to be elevator flutter. There are books written about how to avoid flutter, but the basics are strong servos, stiff pushrods, minimum throws with maximum servo ATV and slow flying speeds.

think you got it. Think with the bad google translation he used he was referring to it falling off and how to avoid it.

Yashung - rebuild it and refer to jrf's post about how to avoid the problem

good luck and welcome to the forums
