So what happens when a 14lb fiberglass model traveling at ~150mph hits the deck? Sad day 1 week before Jet's over Whidbey.

My own personal rule is: Never fly my jets the week before a jet meet.

It has worked very well for me.

John,

I do think it was jinxed never to a trubute plane to a totaled bike as I did. I will give you the scoop Sat plus the video. Also have ordered a replacement. Luckily only 1 servo was totally detroyed everything else was salvagable.
