Crashed


I crashed my plane yesterday flying at Kiwanis park in Provo UT. It wasn't too bad. as you can see the nose of my plane fell off, but nothing a little hot glue can't fix...

Just a side note for myself.

When Ben and I flew for the second flight at the high school the receiver seemed to not be getting a signal from the Tx. we thought that the electronics got wet from the grass and i just needed to let them dry. that was wrong. When I got home I realized that my Tx light was blinking very fast (almost so fast that it looked solid). I then googled my problem and found some forum that was talking about my same Rx and same problem.

All I needed to due was rebind my equipment, my Tx was in bind mode on accident.

so i rebound my tx/rx (queue dramatic music) and everything worked perfectly. (fist pump)

Ok back to my real situation.

Square one. back to rebuilding, because i do not want to risk rebuilding my motor mount just to have it break and cause me more problems. It is ok, my last build was a little sloppy. I am going to stay with the bluecore foam because I am saving my depron for another special day (probably will never muster the courage to build with my depron until all of my bluecore foam is gone, so a couple years.)

I have some good videos up on my youtube channel. search for TopherJentz and subscribe.

Is it bad if my 3 cell Lipo seems to be getting bigger and bigger? (it is almost twice its original size... still works great though.)
