The irony is, it did crash.. and the crash looked identical to a real crash of a full size b52 on a training mission.... and the cause was the same.. insufficient air speed and a wing tip stall in a tight turn...

Back in the days when I was considering getting into RC, these little models somehow showed up on the table here. I no longer want them or need them. If anyone in the US is interested, let me know, I'll mail them to you, free! :o
