Was flying my World Models P-51 Mustang .40 sized plane with retracts. I just put down the retracts and was making my turn for my landing. I banked to right when it happened, I had no control of the plane and it went full throttle and kept banking right til it ended up hitting a tree dead center at full throttle. It made a horrible sound when it hit...........CRACK!!!!!!!!!!!! and that was all she wrote it was ready for the Hefty trash bag. Must say it sucked!!!!!!!!!!

my dad did something similar with a scale corsair, it was its first flight, and he hadn't really tested the controls, but these couple of old members talked him into taking it up, so he taxi'ed it around for a bit, and then went to take off, he starts climbing and all of a sudden it goes into this crazy barrel roll of death and spirals into the ground, absolutly demolished it, he had spent all kinds of time detailing it, did a nice airbrushed camo paint job, detailed cockpit, retracts, the works, and it only lasted like 20 seconds, needless to say, the two old guys felt pretty bad, lol,

not sure if he ever really figured out what the probelm was, he never really looked at it, LOL

wow. that is sad. just injurig someone would make you feel bad, but Killing 2 people? that is unimaginable.

i had a 300$ radiosystem, a futaba nevertheless, and one time it had a glitch! i was flying my foamy biplane, and was flying a few feet off the ground. then the glitch happened, and it fell the 4 feet, and ripped the tail off! oh well, nothing CA glue couldnt fix!

the worst plane crash I've ever had was when i brought my extra 300 out to the field for the first time. I took off and started to trim everything when i started to get some interference. i finally got control of it and started to line it up to land (because i was about to shit myself) when the plane went full throttle and flew strait down into a concrete block you could describe it as a..."splash"

i cracked my os max 46 in 2

oh man, that stinks! lol. i got a cheep imitation of the os 46 for 50$ from my lhs, a pretty good deal. its a magnum engine. maybe you could get one of those, or shell out the 20 - 40 extra $ to get the OS version...

i was flying my new avistar (with a magnum 46) and experienced interference, too. i got ready to land, and one of the landing gear wheels falls off!!! luckily it was one of the back 2, not the front one. i landed, and put in aileron input to keep off of the missing wheel. i succesfully landed, but the plane stuck in something, and tilted down. thhhhhhwack!!!! the propellor broke into pieces, and the carb got tons of dirt in it.

i fixed it all, and now its running fine. it was funny to watch...
