Default Modeltech MAGIC...Crashes

Just thought I would tell you that yesterday my modeltech MAGIC crashed. It got locked into an Inverted Flat Spin and no matter what controls were put in it would not come out.

It spiralled to the ground and landed/crashed behind some trees at our flying club. I thought it was a bin liner pick up, but when I got there all that was damaged was a clean break on the rudder and some minor wing tip damage. 30 minutes in the workshop and it was patched up and ready to fly again.

Just wondered if anyone could shed any light onto why it would NOT come out of the Inverted Flat Spin. Was really strange. Nothing else is damaged. Everything works as before.

Many thanks


Regards
