I wish somebody would tell that to the guys here! I wouldn't characterize it as rare much less very rare for fear of being laughed at for making a joke of some kind...
I wish you guys could share your secrets for how you get your malfunctioned planes to assume perfect neutral trim and attitude as often as you say they do.
I've witnessed it happen just a few times in 27 years. The other few hundred crashes I've been party to... the plane had about a 3 or 4 second life expectancy after it claimed independence from it's owner.
I'll give out just one... The inexperienced use of NiMH batteries with a fast charger...and as for as how often I say they do goes...I haven't said... But certainly not rare...but not often either... somewhere between the two qualifiers...But I guess I'm not trying to defend any certain aspect of the hobby... Sorry I hit a nerve earlier about the speed demons! Weren't trying to call you or anyone else out.

Now back to bashing FPV everyone...nothing to see here...
