Default RE: No plane left to fly, Sigh!!!!!!

1fasthitman-> I guess you are right I'm not ready for the inverted low passes , I had always been comfortable flying inverted and having high altitude passes. Secondly I don't think Mustang has been designed for low passes, I may be wrong.

Charlie P> What I think my mistake is I'm sure 10X7 prop made my plane more sensitive as well as more responsive than with 11X6. While having an inverted low pass I should have pushed/moved the gimbal forward so plane could have gained some height then I should have rolled it over to make it straight, rather than doing that what I just said, I rolled the plane with high speed full throttle and plane turned and took a quick left nose dive and hit the ground so hard and crashed. If plane was may be 300 to 600 feet, I would have been able to recover it but I learned a lesson from my mistake.

I'd like your opinion guys Hangar 9's P51 Mustang is a plane that can be used for an inverted fast low pass? but for higher altitude I have done that and it does get pretty sensitive when it's inverted thats what my experience is, I don't know what you guys say?
