what breaks?Yep, flys and breaks just like every other Jayhawk!
The outer fins attachments are the worst. The inner wing roots, especially at the bottom, will break away from the body tube and tail cone. Damage is hard to show in pictures below. This has flown a couple dozen times and had many repairs, some hasty in the field, some more careful at home. The worst damage to the fins came in a lush green grass park where it decided to land on a rough sidewalk and careen into a parking lot. The heavy nose cone has helped to create a pseudo "Estes Smile" over time in the uppet body tube's hard, heat resistant engine orange paint. It takes a hardened Cold Warrior to fly these Jayhawks.what breaks?
