I agree. If you're too unobservant to notice the model name YOU assigned is wrong on the display then the pre-flight should have alerted you that something was amiss. At some point you have to pay attention and take some responsibility for your own life.

That's not "shot down". That's natural selection.

Check, check and double check. I check throws and response on ALL control surfaces before I taxi out every flight. (And you can also do like I do - reverse the throttle servos on alternate models so you have a 50/50 chance of finding the problem RIGHT AWAY!)
