Default Expensive lesion learned

Yeap... was using 2 channels for ailerons

the left aileron was stuck and only had the right one. As a last effort I hit the controls to left just incase the leads were reversed but this made it completely roll and crash.

The plane is repairable and there was only minor damage to the wing. the rudder and elevator are fine. most damage was fuselage were the wing connects to the body and firewall was pushed back and snapped the prop, engine is fine and only one servo was damage ripping the wires out of the servo.


It could of been worse
