It went into battery failsafe, didn't realize what was happening until I was too close to the trees to recover. I guess I shouldn't have been over the trees in the first place

. I'm over it

OK here's my before and after.. Tree reached up and grabbed it. Sucked it right down
to the ground..

Here is a pic of my old Funtana 40. Pics were taken at the field before flight and after maiden. Last 2 pics are the cause of the crash. I was flying the maiden and was doing an aileron roll, then we all heard a loud snap. Some thought the wings had snapped, but it was the clevis pins snapping out. Could not do much with both ailerons flapping in the wind. Horizon ended up sending me a new plane.

I never use plastic clevises on my surfaces, I use them only on throttle.

krashmaster81 · 03-26-2006, 10:29 AM

plastic clevises are CRAP!!! I always throw em away. Lost a Q500 racer to a plastic clevis once, that was all it took.
