You got lucky. I tried to fly mine today. Wind got it before I could react... Need to replace the nose, port nacelle, power pod, prop, and battery...

Took a closer look at the plane. The elevator control horn broke lose. Time to repair with materials I am more used to. Gorilla Glue and paperless Readi-Board.

I was using the paper covered foam board from walmart and was having the same problem paper separation!!! now I use the redi board and haven't had that problem I also went to the control horns that have a backer that screws the 2 together, good luck an hope to see a vid of it soon!!!

It seems to me that rounding the wing tips I would lose a great deal of aileron authority making using rudder necessary please comment

it does compromise your aileron authority I have found that you do need to use rudder an elevator input to make turns,
