Default Concept 30 did the chicken dance!

No header tank. It sounds like this all could be a plausible explanation for the crash.

I just want to make sure it dones't happen again. Don't get me wrong -- I was really stoked to be doing FFF. I just hate to be grounded over something as silly as not taking off my training gear. Guess I should have asked on here before I tried it -- you guys could have saved me around $100.

The sad truth is that I've been flying my Corona for 2 or 3 weeks now without the training gear with no problem. Landing and hovering (nose-out) is no problem, and I probably didn't need them on the Concept yesterday, anyway. I was just thinking it would be safer to put them on -- sounds like they may have been the cause of the problem all along.

Thanks for all the input. I'll have her back in the air next weekend...
