  • Lockout :( Very scary moment.

    It had been a brilliant day at the scrubs and i have had multiple flights on parkzone extra 300, Then on my last flight as i got over to the far right hand corner off the field on a smooth right hand turn, i suddenly lost all communication between me and the plane, it slowly began to role in the same direction as i was turning and at the same power levels ( which makes think it was a hold) it rolled twice heading towards the ground suddenly it all screamed back into life and i manged to pull the plane out of the dive just in time, halfway through a role and set it on the ground

    This was quite a scary moment as when it happend everything just sort off froze luckely it is still in one piece ready for next time

    And i DID range test before i started flying today and the test was good

    well i guess that is flying for ya :P

    cheers john

    On the subject of planks, my MiG-15 EDF was a total loss on Saturday after its battery pack failed, leading to a spiral into nosedive collision with a hillside.
