RE: Flying lawn mower crash/video
Hi CrashPro....Sorry for your crash. I have a flying lawnmower also. Of my own design. Made from CoroPlast. It looked to me that yours was a little too sensitive in pitch. On my mower that means tail heavy. Hard to control. Another thing: On mine, a critical and very important adjustment is making certain that the handle cross bar has negative incidence. Please appreciate that my input is based on my mower, not yours. I have build plans and photos of mine posted in the S.P.A.D. forum.

My guess is that it stalled, and not having any real wings, was unable to recover. Yes I do know how they are built witht he lifting body type idea.
