Default Swift end

This is one of those China specials called "The Swift" I decided to check out one of my Kraft radios out before I put it in my retro project Dirty Birdy with a Kraft 61 and Kraft retracts.Installed the system in the Swift with a 50.880 freq.module and headed to the field.It took off and I did a 180 turn and leveled out,then it whent out of control for a few seconds and came back to my command then it got hit again and down she went. Guys told me that since our field is only about 800' North of Mexico that the locals down there will use modified ham radios,and that is probably what shot me down.

Default RE: Swift end

Sounds like a great candidate location for a DX7 or some similar 2.4 GHz Spread Spectrum radio system.
