0 of 8 can not be described, it must be seen in person to know how to do it. Problem is, no one who has seen it has survived.

I broke my 50cc EF yak a few years ago by pulling full up ele on a down line.
Wings folded like pancake!
I did this lots of times though!

I once broke a small electric plane by putting a .46 glow (it was recommended for a .15 or so glow) on it and a few hard turns and that was the end of it
not a good 3d plane but it sure was fun!

Got this out of my DP ulti manual good for a chuckle.

KAMIKAZE
This is a cool maneuver! This is a unusual variation to High Alpha. It's a kind of wing testing maneuver that i discovered.In 3D mode and at about 200-300 feet throttle back to idle, dive strait down and at the last moment simply add full up elevator. The plane will suddenly seem to stop descending and be horizontal. At that moment, simply add a bit of power and land. Awesome to see. If you miss and crash, we can replace your Ultimate for $399.99 plus shipping.....good luck!

The classic "9G" maneuver tends to work.

The 9G was well known in the late 1930's and early 40's. (I have some old magazines)

It was:

Launch your FF model and watch it (due to being out of trim) commence a loop with the bottom of the pull-out being underground.

Terminal velocity dive directly into an unmovable, inflexible object tends to end a model's life.

It really depends on the amount of the plane you want to be reusable. There are all kinds of ways to destroy the airframe. Some allow reusing the motor, ESC, RX and servos... some don't.

I shotgunned a wing once while attempting a mid throttle-into-the-wind wall. Port side wing exploded and after a pee poor attempt at pulling it into KE I dug a nice hole in the ground. H9 80cc Sukoi with a DA100 in it.

Many, many, many Chad F.U.'ps ago. . .
