My damaged Seb Art Sukhoi 50E is for sale (Airframe only)
The right wing let go because the carbon rod failed (One too many snap rolls)
Both wings are intact as is the fusalage from the canopy back, including the tailplane, rudder and all the film covering. The cowl is pretty bend but someone with glassing experience could repair it, or you could buy a new one from Model Flight for about $40.
The main repairs needed are replacing the damaged wing mounting plywood on both sides of the fuse, replacing the wing tube and minor stiffening of the engine mount.
It would be a simple project for any experienced model builder, I just dont have the time these days, but it would be a huge shame to bin one of the best handling 3D planes you will ever fly.
Seriously .... if you buy and fix it you will not fly a better 3D plane.
Check this maggot out he is a little better than me.......Ha
