Re: Crash...40% Extra 330L

I think you can repair/rebuild the front end of the fuse faster than you can find a new plane and assemble it.

Everything else except the fuse looks to be in good shape. I think fuse is much easier to repair/rebuild than wings (especially with double taper and thinning airfoil).

I have done repairs that came out lighter than the original (took out lots of excess wood that was not necessary IMO). Anyways, it's a big enough plane to handle a little extra weight. You probably won't even notice any difference in the air.

This guy can fly. I saw him flying before. Very slow and low. I think he is the best at his age here inTaiwan. He flys pattern also.

The best thing to do is to start flying again. Every plane has a number, a number to die so take it for what its worth and start over. Your flying capabiltys are to great to waste in time. So fly good buddy!!

Hi Zi-Chun, greetings from California! Sorry about your loss dude... that absolutely sucks. You're a great stick sir, and I've seen your videos many times before, very impressive to say the least. Tell me you're flying mode 1 with the transmitter behind your back? Nice photos, and we look forward to many more from you here on flyinggiants. - Mad Max Duncan
