Sorry Josh!!!

I had two "near misses" on my two flights so far!
Aileron servo mount and the wing tube sleeve (yes, the one IN the wing) came loose in my well abused 71" slick...
Then, in the air my 89" slick didn't feel right... When I landed, one the white wire of the aileron servo extension had pulled loose, so I was flying on one aileron servo. Some guys at the field said these little clips suck and cause the problem.

Oh man! That's scary. I had some more fun when I started on the next victim too.

Glad your slicks are still sick and not dead!
