Default RE: How to Wing Bolt Conversion??

No, that crash didn't result from the wing coming off, it resulted from the wing breaking when pulling out of a dive. I learned the hard way to cut the throttle immediately in a dive.

But, it would be the same result. After the wing seperated from the plane, it was like a high speed dart heading towards the ground. That was a sick feeling, because as I stood there and watched it coming down, there was not a thing I could do about it .


After impact, it took forever for the wing to every so gently spin to the ground like a feather. Half of the wing is still in a tree. Luckily the half that had the servos left made it back to earth.
