Hey Guys, here is a little lesson for all you guys (and Gals) not flying 2.4 GHz. Two weeks ago the President of my club comes to the field with his DA50 cc PAU Extra fires it up androlls down the runway , lifts off and SPLAT!!! right into theBay!!!Only the engine was salvagable due to the salt water. he turns and says" I lost it right after lift off" I said " Your antenna is'nt up" Well needless to say 2000.00 bucks down the drain. That really sucks, a hard lesson to learn. Well, today he comes down with his 50 cc size electric Yak, and thats right you guessed it- SPLAT!!!! He did it again. 2500.00 this time Nothing salvagable being it was ALLELECTRIC!! If your still flying 72 Mg, remember those antennas boys and girls. I really feel bad for him,Ihope he makes the switch over to 2.4 to keep this from happening to him again. He is one of the best pilots at the field and has some really nice aircraft,I just dont understand why he spends top dollar on planes but wont upgrade his Radio gear. Especially after the first mishap. I hope heupgrades nowto keep this from happening again.
