For us it looks like an early storm system.
Fatalities 30 miles north and south of us. My bosses motor coach was rolled over on its top. No damage to any homes for us, just no power. Getting it started a little early this year. Scary stuff.

He repaired it in another 3 weeks and flew it until he destroyed it.
I have a good left wing after getting it out of the tree.

Is Mike Snowdog? I am always confused.

I spent a lot of time intentionally crashing to watch it break.

Are the breaks in the right areas? Just a little too strong, right?

The nose break is right, the one behind the canopy is right. I never could make the tail one break although I can knock all the tail feathers off. I can also knock off half the main wing. I don't think you can do that very easily.

Also, I just imported into 5.5 the one I exported from 6 and it flies. It is just a little slower it seemed. Other than that, it flew well.

Yaaa.........I kind of forgot the tail break. Oooops Ill see if I can add it without much pain, but it may not happen. The wing break should be an easy fix. I also have to move it up a bit as it sticks below the plane a little.

I was wondering how it would do in 5.5 as I have not imported it yet. Thanks again for the input.
