Status: offline 		I was out last week with my videoplane, a nice Seniorita, when the receiver quit working. I was flying inverted when the motor quit so I set up for a landing then the elevator went slack and the plane rolled a bit and went straight in. The video camera system kept working the whole time so I got the crash on video from a cockpit perspective.

That had to suck seeing your plane go down like that. What kind of camera was you using?

Status: offline 		It was practically brand new, customized and tricked out with big ailerons, wing bolts, faired nose, transparent blue covering, etc. Well at least the engine survived without a scratch.
The camera was a 200mw Hong Kong special on 1.2ghz. It survived the crash fine and has been subsequently used without mishap.
