I went flying yesterday and flew my cap for the first time in 6 months and had a good first flight. My second flight was a little shakey and on my landing i riped my plastic landing gear bolts out. Before i i made my third flight i thought to my self rather i chould quit now or make one more flight. Well i decided to make a third flight and it was a big mistake. I flew around for a few minutes and went into a cuban 8 and when i roled out of the first half loop i lost all elevator. I was nosed down to the ground about 200 feet in the air and had the stick pulled back as far as it would go and nothing happend untill it was about 25 to 50 feet off the ground it glitched and the noise came up a little from a noise dive and by then it was too late. When i brought it home to investagate what happend, I noticed that my elevator gears was striped out. I asked some of the guyes in the club might have happend because the saw everything and they agreed that my plane was going so fast that the gears striped out. Well That was my favorite plane to fly but i guss not anymore..When It hit the ground the wings flew up in the air about 6 feet or so and about 4 sec later you heard the crashing sound. It sounded like a bomb going off .
