Yes - apart from a few dents and being a bit on the damp side, It was undamaged too. Lucky it didnt end up in the trees around the pond ;D

John, you too saw that I had a lockout  :)

But I was so lucky that it went in the pond. Oh and BTW you didn't miss anything after you went. On the Storm I was running the motor up before launch and it suddenly stopped and some magic blue smoke came out  ;) .

So yeah I think I need a new motor now eh. I will probably save up and get an AXI or something that won't burn out randomly...

But I'm currently making new, sprung undercarriage for the Fun Cub so it wont bend all the time :)

Heah god I stunk after that (even more than usual)... That stagnant water really didn't like being churned up. Perhaps my dreams of becoming a duck when I'm older are not entirely practical, partially due to the fact that living in a smelly pond isn't entirely attractive.


Oh well. At least the plane is fine!
