Default RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Mine did it to me yesterday. It was about 15 feet away and about 6 feet up, Ti was enabled and it was a perfect, cloudless, windless evening. I was flying in an area where there are no other rc aircraft around (my backyard) but I am close to the interstate. All 4 rotors just cut out but before she hit the ground, the power kicked back in. I had it recovered but I panicked and set it down pretty hard and broke 3 supports[:@]. This is about the third time this has happened but the other two times I was high enough that it fully recovered and no damaged occurred. I'm wondering that maybe I could be getting freq hits from truckers CB's since I do live near interstate 40 (not the regular CB's but the guys that are running high power liniers). Could this be a cause?
