Went flying today....got one flight in with the Tunnel Vision.

at the end of the flight I had to add a heap of left aileron trim to it, and it was all over the place!

The bolt holding the wing on had stripped the hole in the wing tube, and the only thing holding the wing on the tube was the aileron lead from the servo..I knew those fancy "servo locks" would come in handy!!!

ur darn lucky

I thot it was supposed to have tape holding the wings on . . .

I'm going to be installing a blind nut inside the wingtube on both sides, and weld or epoxy it in.

That coulda' been real bad, Jon. Your day went a little better than mine. I took the prop and 1 gear half off my profile today along with some minor damage next to the fuse on the wing. No big deal, just enough to tick me off.

TODAY I HOVERED 0 ALTITUDE !!!! lol mi wing got damege but that was COOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ken the gear on my CG 330 folds back after take off EVERYTIME

Its LG from a U-Can't-Do 3D .46 that I cut in half and flipped around...The stock LG on the CG 330 was bending like crazy.

I use the CG glass filled, I usually break one half on a real hard landing, normally doing something too close to the ground. Carbon fibre is the next step.

hmm, since we are on a carnage theme here, i flew my fancy foam extra into the creek behind my house, STOOPID. dried everything off with air. put it back on, all works fine :-) so then i proceded to demolish my extra with a little TR practice... any sugguestions for a new 12-14oz foamy??
