Default RE: New Top Flite P-40 60 sized arf

TSky28;
I am so sorry to hear and see your lost. I have been in this hobby for over 40 years and I still don't like to see a plane go down. This past Friday, I lost my Top Flite P-51 60 ARF to the lost of right flap authority on short final. My bird did the same thing your plane did. I don't know if the right flap servo came un-plug in flight or from the crash, but it was not working at the crash-site. When I return to the pit with what left of the P-51, I plug the servo back in and it was working. Sound like you put in a great fight to save her. Again, sorry for your lost. Like one of my old flying friend told me back in the 70's fly hard, fly safe, and if you crash, rebuild for another day!!!
Take care!!!
