update...engine checks out still lookin for a new plane!
That's good. Looking at the plane it was nose in - tail up (here it's called 'lawn dart', in Poland is's called 'a carrot'). For such crash I would expect that the engine is damaged.
Did you recover all radio? The ARF is the least expensive part in RTF. In my 180 dollars PLH Edge I have over 1k dollars of stuff.

So far I've seen only one crash that totalled everything. It was a quicky that went 150mph into asphalt making a big dent in it. The engine pieces were spread all over the runway and surrounding grass. Next day we found the battery pack 50 yards away from the runway.
