        Still looking into the cause ??
        But was just hovering around lucky with no canopy on !! To run in my new piston & ring,it started to piro on its own better land it quick(thought gyro had gone ).No response to any inputs !!! Throttle cut,idle up !!!
        Had to stand well back and watch it destroy itself!!
        It end up doing the funky chicken till the con rod let go !!
        It's not an economic repair,broke it up for spares!!

          Holee Crapola!! And when im not there to video it too!!! Jeez!

          Its one of two things imo, your align 2 in 1 crapped out, OR the receiver lost bind or crapped out. Dont think it would be the handset cos the original DX7 are pretty bullet proof!!

            Damn, that bites! Must have been something with the signal or RX power. Definitely a nightmare scenario.

                I had the tail pulley pin snap on my maiden causing a piro and crash.

                In regards to loss of input, did it throw the battery or disconnect it?

                        That's now the most expensive penny switch in history. At least you know what caused it now.
                        Still it's a bummer
