Mine still flying and it has been repaired several times. Almost lost on its 5th flight with a DLE 85 pulling to hard on the elevator the center wing support collapsed under load. Replaced wood and carbon support. Pulled the DLE 85 out as it was shaking it apart, replace with a GT80 and has plenty of power. There are so many flaws with this plane but it is a great flyer.

Yeah. Lots of people reinforce the wing tubes. look back in the forums. I reinforced my Zero and my now under construction, Top RC P47. Even though Electrics have nearly no vibration compared Gas engines, the extra weight can also stress the structure in high G maneuvers. I've pushed my Zero hard in Aerobatics and its very strong!.

I've read the whole thread.... may have missed, but does anyone have a DXF file for the baffle for the Saito 90? Would be much appreciated!

I do but was designed for the FW-190, having said that it is round so would mostly likely be suitable to use.
