Whew.... Had that happen to me also... But never had to the person there to tell me to put the antenna up!! After the crash I reached up to put the antenna down, and it was already down. Opps... Well, I didn't have to do much of a postmortem to find out what went wrong! Taught me never to fly alone.

Good save! , wish mine was.

Thank god, I'm not the only one who's done it! Put my second plane in pretty hard doing that very thing. After losing all controls shortly after takeoff, I looked around for the gentlemen who shot me down. Then stopped my search when I tried to put the antenna down.

same here, except it happened when i was into cars... better crash a car than a heli... :) so i got all the skills/safety features needed to transition to helis... :D

Sorry about your losses guys!
