If that was just the tail giving out then it's the pilot's fault that crashed. Throttle hold would have made that quite easy to land smoothly without ploughing negative pitch into the floor lol.Sponsored by - Align - CSM Gyro's - OptiFuel/OptiPower - Kontronik Drives UK

yeah agreed. I'm no pro and would probably make the same error, but it wasn't even spinning that quick. It was the large amount of negative pitch that he whacked in that killed inOriginally posted by astra 8vt View Postim no expert but that looked more like pilot error to meHarry

If he didnt panic and stab in negative, that was an easy save.

Red the right up on the site, says experienced pilot, my tail pitch rod snapped no damage, then again a week later 20-30ft up. I hit throttle hold and it came down, not hard as I gave pos pitch, but did land side ways. I'm a noob and dint panic like that, I have also seen a few tube vids of proper experienced flyers land perfect after a tail fault.
