Just missed his foam planes sitting there. There were people around there too... So embarrassed. They said it wasn't even the scariest thing that's ever happened there


Only things that are broken are the canopy mount on the one side, and a couple teeth out of the main gear. All of the linkages came off. There is a scratch on the tail boom right where tail servo mounts. Servo mounts were askew. Not sure if anythings bent yet. Going to pull it apart soon and check.


I was not a fan of that wild ride. Crashing out in the flying field is one thing ... heading back into the pit area is something else. And, I'm not sure if it was me or mechanical. It didn't seem to want to turn. Before I trust it again, i'll have to go out there and fly it when no ones there to check if its ok after repairs.



Wow... shook for about 20 minutes after that one.
