I cannot let that go man, I cant...and neither can anyone holding a waiver! Period. Sorry I am not obviously in your good ol boy posting network.

Not from me, I get hatted on so much in this part of the RC Hobbie It dont bother me, Ill be honest I never really thought there would be a safety issue with motor, as it had time to completly shut down before touch down.
It not really a big deal as I was planning on sending it in when the snow came, but a little sooner is not a deal breaker,
To be honest what has me bothered, is that the jet was in a perfect hover, and was still falling down, at a exsactly 20pound empty weight, and I was towerds the end of my flight with a 26 pound motor, I would have figured I would have had the thrust to pull out, but I was wrong. Now that Im getting the motor upgreaded to 30 pounds of thrust, I don't think it will be enogh.
SO I think I might just put my P80 in it and call it a day and save the P120 for a new shinny bird... Which one there are so many. LOL
