Well after a week of investigation, I have to say it was the striped servo that caused the crash. The servo trey had alot of balsa pulled away from the plane, therefore it was not it. The dow also had no signs of failure. it still had the pushrods installed and was CA in. Not it either. So with all things given I am concluding it was the servo with the 3 stripped teeth. A friend emailed me today with the subject R.I.P. The day this photo was taken he had a plane to go down. I help him retrive it. As you can see from my muddy shoes. I gave him a 30 min. talk about checking his plane over better. I forgot that he took this photo. Now I am witing on my 30 min. talk on checking my planes better
