Yeah the wait is what I don't like. Last week I flew the P-51 and it got into an argument with a dirt clod on landing, and the right wings LE got snapped between two middle ribs. Tissue was ripped back, so I cut it out and replaced the LE, retissued it and it looks great. I'll wait for the rain to stop and then go crash it again I suppose.

keep trying... make sure you test fly it in some tall grass, but keep an eye on it or you will lose it!

Yeah... Flew it this morning, came down on the left wing, split the frame lengthways, pulled the wing out and snapped the TE. Also tore the tissue on the side real bad. Don't even know if it's worth fixing...

did you try to turn her, and the wing diped?

No, she flew in a big circle over my head, came down still in a light bank...
