I have a few foam planes that I have flown, crashed, modified and abused. I've repaired them all multiple times. Their performance has been deteriorating with every altercation. Heres my list:
HZ Super Cub: Currently the fuse is in multiple pieces. I haven't been able to muster the strength to repair it.
Wild Hawk: I found this plane in a pile of trash someone had placed on the curb. It has endured much abuse. The lovely performance has dropped dramatically.
50 mm Mig-15: Finally shoe-horned a 4 cell battery in her. She flew like a thrust-vectored jet with the nozzle stuck on full back stick. Before I could sort it out, she blew another set of fan blades out her back end as if she had explosive diarrhea.
I'm tired of repairing airplanes. Right now, I just want to pick something up and go out for a flight without having to troubleshoot anything. I know this won't last, but do I let those sit for a while, or put them out of my misery and move on? Sigh.
