K8b...Yes, unfortunately, it stalled and nosed in at the bottom, crunching the fuse. Henry will rebuild. Wind only around 13, had we known in a half hour later it would be 20+, we would have waited.

It was ready 1/2 hour after i got home, yesterday! I landed smoothly on the beach today as it was a little rough on top. Last flight today was in 20+ mph wind...and even with its bulk it just stood still in the air. Thanks for your help bringing it to me.

Great laid back day at the Bluffs, perfect for Zipper and Dart, 11-14 smooth as could be.
