Congratulation to building this plane. Great location to fly. It's so bad to see the crash. First you had a problem at 3:59, than it looks normal, the second Problem at 4:02. Both times violent reaction. The first looks like "elevator down,the second elevator up? I think a Problem with the Receiver (circuit board inside) - loose connection or the Antenna. The elevator Ruder looks well before the Crash. I hope you can Repair it! Good luck, I want to see it fly again!

Thank you for the kind words. And I think you are right, the receiver I used was not an original frSky one. I had used it before, but it was a few years ago and it had been sitting around since. Not a good decision to use it, in the end. I will repair it this week and try again on the weekend hopefully. Cheers Michael

@@xxMADxMICKxx I use a turnigy TGY-i6 Radio,Original Receiver is the HK-T6A-V2. But i use now Flysky Receiver's FS-R6B, or for the "Libelle" the 6CH FS-iA6B with the Flysky FS-CVT01 Voltage Collection Module.Never I had problems. But-i bought an FS2A-4CH 2,4G AFHDS 2A 4CH PWM Mini Receiver 2 Month#s ago. Binding well,ch 2-4 o.k.Only Ch1 doesn't work.Think my next Radio will be a Flysky! Hope this brings you further! Ups-I've seen Andrew Newton here-nice!

Masterful zoom transition to the field. Pity about the plane.

Thanks Andrew, I steal all the good ideas. Hopefully the plane will be back this weekend with a new transmitter
