Great video.
Yes, we should all be having FUN while enjoying our hobby. Since most of the guys I fly with buy, assemble, and fly ARFs, They seem to get quite upset when something goes wrong.
I have been building and bashing for almost 20 years now, and usually end up with the pieces of ARFs that are deemed worthless.
one of these is a beautiful Great Planes Super Skybolt that I was given after its second crash. The very first flight it stripped an aileron servo and wound up in the pond, and on its 6th flight, one of our famous Jumping Pines grabbed it right out of the air and thrashed it upon the ground, breaking the lower wing in half.
I hope to test flight it this afternoon.

Landing is one aerobatic maneuver that MUST be perfected!
