Stormlauncher ES: Exploratory Surgery
Hey there! I saw storm launcher in this section, so this must be the right place.
Honestly, the SL is the most fun of the (5 types of) planes I've flown.
I recently crashed mine and the right motor quit (broken solder joint?), so for now, I'm grounded.[
]
However... My mom's rules include "Don't you dare rip stuff up if it still works."
Even as I type this my hair is turning white and spikey as I cackel with mad(scientist)ness. Time for some surgery!!!
I like the SL the way it is (pardon, was), so here is my question: What is the least intrusive way to dissect the storm launcher? The ideal method would result in me being able to reassemble it with some tacky-glue and scotch tape.
I'm like seriously bummed out MAN, help a dude out. Please

THX. I was pleasently suprised (but a little disappointed) to see how you don't have to rip it open to fix it. I rsoldered the joint and it flew perfectly, maybe even better than before. But now, I have a diffirent problem. I broke both right props (it's always the right props, never the left props[:@]). So, I'm grounded AGAIN.[&o]
