Ok this is todays Gremlin combat lesson ! Always check the 1/4 inch bolts holding your Gremlin together after a crash and before you launch it in the air for the next round ! I didn't and about a hundred feet out after launch at at full speed with my OS 32 it decided the one rear bolt that was still intact wasn't going to do it ! So after a big snap sound the wing was fluttering down and the fuse was making a really nice arch like a thrown javelin to the ground. After the snap it was actually a peaceful enjoyable crash watching that fuse go to the ground. Jim said the Russian judge scored me good for the constant arc.
It was so good he had people scrambling to bring it back and never actually made it out of the pits

I have no doubt it will be back next season
