Yes I did burn up the motors in the air and that put me out of the race completely. Electronics are not perfect we have had speed controls that worked for many flights burn up for no reason when you plug in the batteries among other problems. I don't care what you are flying some unforeseen problems come up.
You just said our heavy planes are self inflected. Well as I see it your starting problems are also. Change your glow plug, test your starter, make sure your mixture is right etc. WE all have some bad luck at times and cant get in the air whether it is a fuel plane or electric.
You obviously don't like electric planes and I will probably never change your mind. I am sorry if that bothers you but I really like the challenge of overcoming the problems and want to keep flying them. I have nothing against fuel planes I just would rather fly electric.
