The demise of the Tigercat
« on: May 03, 2015, 09:37:12 PM »
While practicing for Brodak today, a club member lost his F7F Tigercat in the wind.  Luckily he has a Corsair for backup.  Lots of time down the drain with this crash but alas, this is the end that all models will usually meet.

Mike,

Have him send it to me. I'll fix it. Well, I'll keep it too. That's the idea.

I have two 25's.  ;D

See what you can do. I'll trade what's left for graphics.  #^

Ouch!! Way too many of mine have met a similar fate.

This is what inspired me to make them Take Apart or to be more precise "Take Apart on Purpose"
