              no, but it is very light and I belive that it would snap in half if it flips speeds over 35mph. -add some fiberglass if carbon is the problem?

                The seams are the issue. Use some FG seamn tape and run where you can. Then fill the sponson nose tips with foam to make it strong.

                Hope to have mine running this weekend but orders to complete.

                  I did crash at full speed... something over 50 at a guess, I know it did 68 but on that run my Li-Po blew up and split the hull in two at the front, Thanks for the tip of filling the front with foam! That's what I will do.... (when it's fixed)!!!!!!
