Default Goodbye to my Hangar 9 Beast; Thanks for the crazy 200 flights

Feb 23rd, 2013. Shenyang, China.

My Beast finished his last mission. During a nose down, full throttle, full ailoren spin, the right side wings decide they dont want to serve this crazy owner anymore. They "fly" away.

Thank you for serving my need for the last 19 months.

Luke Wang

Oh man! Does that ever suck! Any thoughts on why the wing failure? I just started flying a Beast late last year and would hate having the same thing happen to mine.

Sorry for the lost of your Beast!!!

Beast is a very strong airplane. I kept pushing it to its limit. So some part will fail first.

Normally my plane never last more than 80 flights. The Beast lasts almost 200.

From my point of view. It is stronger than any other airplane I owned.

That's different story. I hate someone being racist to me. It is okay for not selling me a kit. but the reason should not be my nationality.
