Velco . . I feel your pain []

My Angel is my second. The first was lost on the maiden flight . . on take-off ! ! Both myself and a friend did the pre-flight checks . . I took off, it started to bank to the right, I added left Aileron and it banked more . . I added more and it 'snapped' over . . pushed the stick the other way, and it 'snapped' over to the left . . violently, and in it went ! All in the blink of an eye [:@]

Post mortem . . Ailerons were reversed . . AND . . I took off on high (3D) rates.

Don't think anyone could have saved it . . Ohhh . . except for maybe Chip Hyde ! . . Heard a rumour that he test flew someones Pattern Plane and flew the whole Pattern Schedule and landed. Handed the transmitter back and said . . "Flies nice, but you might want to reverse the ailerons back".

Don't know how true that is . . "Chinese Whisper" and all . . but it makes a good story

PS . . I would replace it with the Miss Wind 50E if I lost mine (again ) . .
