Miserable day for me!
Sadly what goes up quick must come down quick:
This was on the remaiden since the extensive repairs Darren & I performed to the nose. Went from a hand chuck straight up, I looped over the top (Not as high as usual) and it went off air, zero roll or pitch. I held the stick back just in case of a reconnect but it never happened, landed nose first quite quickly
Equipment is close to a total write off, Motor, ESC & Battery are all beyond repair, servo's might be ok but I wouldn't trust them.
I have a good mind to chuck the Spektrum AR6250 CARBON Fuse RX in the bin.
Interestingly, the carbon work that we did was still intact despite being up front of the impact. Bodes well for future projects
