Hi folks</p>


</p>

I had a similar crash like tazo171 last weekend. 3rd flight, no major problems and doing some simple aerobatics. During vertical down I pulled the elevator and the left wing collapsed. The carbon tube broke, the remaining plane crashed into a corn field.</p>

I wrote a mail to CMPro, no response till now. 
After reading this post, this is a design error an CMPro or the importing company must care about product liability. This thread was started years ago, but the tube seems to be the same weak part.
</p>

Sorry, I can't upload an image, but plane completely destroyed. The engine was 35ccm Roto with 20*10 carbon prop running at 6600 rpm, so not overpowered.</p>

Kind regards</p>
