Default sticks

Sixshooter,
You are correct. Only thing I don't understand is the I didn't bend the sticks until it rolled over. The plane was straight and level. After the plane rolled on its back I realized I had a problem, lockout... thus moving the stick slightly and then more with no avail.

I kept moving them until I finally regained control. Set up for my landing, gear and flaps down. I had control until I was on short base to final. During a slight right hand final approach, the plane locked out for the last time thus hitting the brush in a slight right dive attitude.

I may never know.
