Have to agree with Eugene on the point of pilot being partially responsible for his aircraft like was it overpowered , had a bad landing and not checked out ? ......
Read it lots were a guy will put a 140 or a 160 into an aircraft meant to have a 80-100 and not dial down the power or limit top end speed in a dive or whatever and then over stresses the airframe. May be cumulative over time also, just a thought. Not saying FEJ has or doesn't have issues but rather than a blanket statement saying they are junk would like to see more specifics as to equipment installed . This applies to all model equipment when crashes happen . Details , detailes, details !

Not new to modelling but am new to jets this last year and a bit so like to soak up all I can. Brain not overloaded yet. Lol !
