I never had a failure on an F50. I bought a bunch of F50 Silver Streaks from Ross Dunton of Magnum, at LDRS 13 in Argonia in 1994. He had a huge footlocker full of them. Flew most of them in Argonia, but brought a few home. I bought a G160 and H220, too, but never flew them. I gave them to a friend about 20 years ago. He probably still has them. I should get them back, or demand he try them. Would be fun to watch.
