Went out today to set up my pred. after a tail link broke at Mac's wanted to get it all set up for IRCA.
I was shooting autos mind you this was the first tank of the day. I had done some ajusting to the swash and mixing to get flying well. I had it almost were i wanted it was up about 300ft started decent tiped the nose down a little to far and it tucked under and i was over some tree's went to bail after it got inverted only to figure out the engine was dead by that time I saw it disapear into tree tops and heard some not so good sounds as it fell to what I thought was it's death for the day.
Only damage was some canopy damage and servo gear sets. All shafts,boom,and MAH blades, paddles and tail survived amazingly.
