I'm racking my brain right now trying to figure out what RMP is in engineering talk so that I can come up with an intelligent reply...[let's see what Google says].....
OK got it ...
My
Risk Management Plan is to always stand behind a large object after launching any plane that I have scratch built for fear that it might go out of control and try to attack me shortly after launch.....
Shortly after learning how to fly RC with a 6 foot span "Genlte Lady" glider I felt that it was time to move up to converting one of my AMA C/L COMBAT PLANES WITH A FOX .36 "COMBAT SPECIAL" TO RC.
It wasn't hard, just hang a pair of elevons off the T.E. and glue a pair of vertical fins on it for stability.
Back then "micro servos" were Fubaba 133s..about 1/2 the weight of standard servos.
So I'm really excited about seeing this little monster fly. Anyone who has ever spent time flying C/L Combat has witnessed some pretty spectacular "FLYAWAYS" where the 100 mph plane is cut loose and goes into a spiral climb way way up until it runs out of gas..then flutters back to Earth in the next town....so here I am in my own mind ready to "make history" with the first RC flight of one of these demons.
The launch was more like a "release" as the model shot out of my grip and the model was flying just great.
I was the only one at the club field which was OK with me just in case something went wrong.
Now I'm really concentrating on keeping this model under control when I hear a couple strange voices behind me OOOOING & AAAAHING and saying they've never seen a radio controlled plane before.
Right at this time the plane stopped obeying my commands..and it was stuck doing consecutive loops as the wind kept drifting the plane back towards us.
I had to yell at the onlookers to get under one of the work benches for protection.
The model eventually drifted back over us and crashed on the other side of the access road in a neighbors field......
Picture having this thing coming at you......
