Didn't hurt it bad. Crunched the nose a little, broke the prop and broke the glue joint on the landing gear block. What I learned. Don't hit the throttle kill switch by mistake when in a hover 8' off the ground.
Check it out.

Yep. That'll do it every time. Was you tying to hit a different switch? Or just an accidental thing?
Maybe that train ruined your concentration.
Looked pretty good up till that point bro. You happy with the power combo? Looked like it had plenty of gumption to me.

Btw, only took me three beers to fix the Grasshopper today. Either I'm getting faster at repairing, or I'm slowing down on the brew in my old age.

Wow a 13x6. That bird is bigger than I thought.

Not really. 40" wingspan and has a 2200mah 3S 30c lipo on it. the green one I built the guy that will own it is running a much higher KV motor and will be running a 11x6 prop. All personal preference really. I like the feel of a bigger prop as it moves more air across the surfaces and seems to be more stable in HA. just my opinion though.

Cooked and Cleaned some of the Meth Engines, Rigged up a Combo Portable Engine Test Bed / Stand. Top one is inspired by Ron Sexton's engine test stand. The one that won't fit in them goes to regular stand. Regular stand also keeps oil spill from the exhaust inside the box, top one keeps it on the stand. thereby not dirtying up the place (keeps RC Wife happy)
