Agreed Marcel, the scanner is ugly BUT beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the flyer. Your friend has witnessed the ugly scanner flying and expressed the desire to own one, so being a good friend, you bought one. Maybe your friend should assemble(with your help) the said scanner and install a 46Ax motor and fly it, if disappointed in its performance then sell it to blind pylon racer, problem solved!!. Now the tricky one, a WOT 4 with a Saito 72 four stroke, now that is pure ugly but a very enjoyable plane to fly, your friend will enjoy many hours assembling said aircraft and many hours of flying. No matter what you say or do, you will be branded selfish and self centred for spending money on yourself evan tho they are your friends planes. Myself I have rooms full of planes but my good friend says it keeps me happy and entertained. Friends often say things hurtful without realizing that being a ....... to a well meaning friend really hurts their feelings, you can't really sue them for that. Lawyers cost money and if you have to sell all of your planes to pursue legal action it is a no win situation unless you can hire a no win no fee lawyer. If your friend wont feed you anymore I know of this little food van that frequents Warwick that feeds the homeless, might be worth a try!!!
