RE: ESM 50cc Corsair
My climb out was at a pretty good angle but the engine sputtered I feathered the stick and it came back on but just as soon as it did that it went dead. In that short amount of time and altitude I lost some forward momentum and just didn't have the space (air) for it to recover. I was able to hit high rates about 10 feet off the deck and pulled a hard flare but it still went in at about 30deg took the entire nose back to the wing with it. The engine after it broke lose then decided it wanted to join the wing - which it did . And I must say it made nice work of the left side gear / mid section.
Here are a couple picture of my ESM gear for the Corsair. Each one had screws that were backed out or very, very lose. I will be pulling each one out and putting on some lock tight. In all they look very nice and very strong.
