RE: BME CAP Maniac
well i flew it twice today.flies awesome with the 110.but i think when i drilled the motor in when it was on my showtime i hurt it. i had a dead stick coming out of an inverted harrier to a hover.NEVeR DEAD STICKED on me before.. also i noticed power was a little low. and it smelled hot even when it was pouring rich. there also seems to be no medium point between to rich or too lean since the crash.. I managed a harrier pancake style landing that seemed to just bend my gear.. but after an inspection found that it desroyed something MAJOR in the wing just outside of the belly pan area about 6" out.. I wouldnt say it was hard enough to break a wink in half but it looks like if I flex the wing that the only thing that is holding it together is the bottom spar.. The only thing that clued me to the damage was the covering on top of the wing was a little wrinkle.. that is because ALL the top sheeting in that area is broke. Another interesting thing is the spar in the wing goes way past where it broke.. so i cant understand what is going on with it untill i cut it open.. I will have to cut the sheeting of the bottom of the wing to get in there to do surgery and fix it.. I thought the wing was built pretty tough but maybee i was wrong.. or maybee they built it too tough and it couldnt give any when it got shocked. so i will have a few hours of work before i can find out if my motor is really messed up or not
