Default "Ooopss..."

Well, It was like anyother day, I had a freshly charged Common Sense in my Tensor and walked out into the front yard. Started getting brave, rolling closer and closer to the ground. Dragged the rudder while inverted... Then, It happened. I was doing a rolling harrier, and it just fell. I really don't get it. Oh well, Enjoy the carnage!!!
Mike

Hahah I had the exact same happen to me last December trying out a new motor on a freezing day. Motor cut and plane fell out of rolling harrier, into an all-point landing. Funny though, mine wasnt hurt nearly as badly. Almost looks like yours had some foot-assisted damage after the crash?
