Default RE: Crash, What happened

aileron servos where mounted in the wing, and I did a full check on the bench (did I over look something). The rudder seemed to work OK, but only tried it once because it was a fight just to keep her in the air. I am going to check close to see if I can see any smooth places in the servo trey from sliding. If I had to guess I would say it was the trey too, but I could pull elavator and nothing, then in 2 seconds see would go straight up (no throttle change). It just seems to me if it where the trey when I pulled elavator the throttle would respond as well because of the trey movement. sure has me guessing. I will not rest untill I can be at peace why my Spectrum had to go to that runway in the sky.[&o]We all ask ourself when we have a plane we love to go down was it me, building, or gear that was the cause, but this was the first time I have ever seen or had something like this happen. Well at least it will make me more careful in the future.

Thanks for all the info and opinions.
