P51 D "Mustang" Sweet Thing
| Wingspan: | 1.45 m |
| Engine: | OS MAX SF 61 |
| Control: | Engine, Elevator, Ailerons, Rudder, Retract, Retract-Doors |
| Description: | Was very nice to fly. Unfortunately
completely destroyed on the third flight ( ... fucking big
shit ... ). Crash was either caused by a radio interference
or by a possible battery overload due to a unproper retracted
gear, which was exhausting the receiver battery. But based on the behaviour of the model, I assume that a radio interference or static discharge was responsible for this fatal crash. NEVER connect the retractable gear unit to the receiver battery !!! |
The above picture has been taken just before the first flight. Fortunately, today's cameras have a short exposure time - so you can not see my hands trembling.
