Default J-3 Cub HELP!!!!!

Ok, today I was flying my J-3 cub, flew just fine. I'm still learning, so some of the landings where pretty rough, but not real bad. I was flying it, everything going great, and then brought it down for a great landing. I go over to it and pick it up, test everything....nothing works! I brought it over to the car, and opened her up. Everything looked fine, but still NO RESPONSE! Anyone ever have trouble with there PZ cub like me? The only thing I can think of is during one of the not so good landings, the reciever/ESC was out of it's little casing, but everything still looked fine. I was also thinkin' it was the battery. I recharged the battery, and it got warm, popped it in, still nothing. Any suggestions????[:@]

All power goes thru the speed control -- might be the culprit, huh ?

I got it working once, just fiddled with it a bit, then went out again. Worked on it some more, tomorrow I'll run more tests and we'll see what happens.

Could an antenna that was being bent or crushed have caused the "power outage"??
