It doesn't look as bad in the pics as it does in person, also what would explain the roll? I barely started to touch the stick and start an easy turn not sharp at all when it rolled.Plus this was the fastest roll i've seen this plane do, if I do them on purpose(stick quickly all the way to one side) it easily takes twice as long. as for sending in the rx does every company offer something like this? also it wasnt a major crash, it bounced on landing(not very hard maybe 1-1/2' off the ground) but a wing tip dropped and before I could give it any input(being so low now) the plane was sideways, the spinner then touched the ground and forced the plane backwards and ended up bouncing on the elevator(kind of a cart wheel but not really vertical). it wasnt very hard at all and I have the rx and batt wrapped well and tied down tight. Could this really have ruined a rx? I mean futaba should make a product that can withstand a little abuse right?
What could make it roll faster than when you move the stick? Most certainly not a slight lean to0 the stab.
Think about what you saw. You saw a slight attempt to turn result in a roll that's faster than you cause with a normal stick movement. What makes an airplane roll normally? The ailerons. They're designed to do the deed. And trying to roll with the elevator is about the worst possible way to get a blinding fast roll. Would you guess that the ailerons SLAMMED full one direction? I'd put my money on that.
And to suddenly buck up and down? Elevators slamming up and down maybe?
Combined, it sounds like something electrical. Like a cracked circuit board or a couple of almost broken connections somewhere.
