I removed to bottom tissue and fixed both wings near the root area. |

Repaired damage from 2 days ago. |

No loop, just a stall. it did manage to fly on a couple other tries before it crashed (I have repaired the damage). My Guillow's TBF has successfully performed a double loop and still landed safely. |

Loops? |

Zero flew better tonight than it has in the past, but it also crashed heavily, also fix-able. |

Motor broke after just a couple flights. Did not fly well... |

Had a bad camera day, the Zero flew better than it has, didn't get a decent image though. |

Note large propeller, I tried it and prefer a smaller one for this plane, but didn't want to do the work to switch it. |

I did damage the plane, not sure what I will do for repairs. |

From today, flew "just OK" but better than it has in the past. |

Still trying to get this to fly OK. I may try again this weekend. |

Did some more test flights tonight. A strong motor just seems to get the plane in trouble quicker, I've gone back to a weak motor in hopes of avoiding climbs that lead to stalls. It was too windy tonight to really say how it is flying. I'll have to wait for calmer weather. I had damaged it twice earlier in the week but it is fully repaired and looks good still. |

And it does look nice. |

I managed to fly this about 15 times without wrecking anything. It looks like the very high wing load is really limiting my options. It does fly but needs a lot of power I think. Very little margin of error due to a high stall speed. I will probably let it rest and just look nice for a while. |
