Was flying today with my flying buddy and was really pushing it. Engine was running good and weather was excellent. Flew 3 times with no incidents and had my buddy giddy because of the things I was doing with it. Well my 4th flight I was coming in and decided to do a low invert. It was about 2 feet from the ground going full throttle inverted. The wind was bouncing it a little so I decided to pull up. Well I pulled down on the stick and it went down. Just pure dumb thumbs. The Mach II screams with a .46FX and a 11x5 prop. When it hit the ground it was like it had a M80 on it. I never seen balsa just explode like that. I mean the pieces were from the size of a dime to the size of my hand, and there were 100's. Just turned into confetti. But you know the what the funny thing was, after it hit my friend goes "Oh f@#k". And I lost it. I was laughing so hard. His reaction was the best. It wasn't a yell or any emotion in his voice, he just said oh f@#k. I wish I had it on tape. It's a bummer that it wrecked but it was kinda cool. Everything survived except the plane. Good thing it was only 68$. I didn't have my digital on me but this is about 60% of what I could pick up. The rest was just bits.

No VW bug, it's a 03 MAZDA 6i.

The gas tank was smashed, spinner gone, prop gone, 1/3 of the fusealage was in a hundred pieces, covering, balsa, engine mount, wings were totally trashed. By the time you add the price of balsa, glue, covering, engine mount, and the time to put it together, better off buying a new one. At only 69$ not much of a loss. Bummer it crashed but there is a new version of this plane out. If I never wrecked it, I would have never known of the new one.

LMAO..

Sorry for your loss, but WOW it blew up?? Excellent that you kept a great attitude. Remember if your not crashing your not flying on the envelope...just don't lick the stamp so darn hard.
