Anybody who flies R/C models should join the AMA (Academy of Model =
Aeronautics). They have $2.5 million liability coverage. It is only =
about $58 a year... well worth it. I do not know if there is insurance =
on the model itself.

That aircraft was over the weight limit for AMA coverage.

Not available from AMA.
