Description
This turbine-powered RC plane breaks up in mid air and plunges to the ground in pieces. Damn, I missed the actual break-up but I did catch the bits falling.
Nobody's totally sure what happened but it's possible that a heavy landing earlier in the day may have weakened the spar which later broke, causing the left wing to tear-free and knock off the vertical stabilizers -- resulting in an uncontrolled flat-spin for the rest of the model.
RC jets are great fun but you can spend money *really* fast when things like this happen.
