SEAGULL 40 TRAINER RC PLANE CRASH RADIO LOSS
This was the second and last plane to crash this day due to radio interference/loss of control. As with the last vid of the Z50, we suspected foul play like some sort of radio jammer. Like with the z50 crash, the controls would come good and go off again just before I could land it.

G'day Dan
Speaking as a "R/C plane nerd" I think if you were not a pig headed ignoranmous as you would appear to be, you would see some merrit in the experience of others,
its cheaper to learn from the errors of others, however if you want to do it the hard way, and have plane after plane take a dirt bath by all means continue,Why not get your radio gear checked, then you will know whether its radio dramas or just shithouse flying.
all the best!
apparently my …
apparently my comments really hit a nerve,,ps go yourself
Watch the video …
Watch the video again you moron. If you REALLY think thats a 'dumb thumbs' error, then you need your eyes checked.
Id be the first one to put my hand up if I up a flight and I have done so, many a time, in the past.
Thats the problem with you RC plane nerds. All you can dish out is critisism and its not even constructive.
Classic example of why I'd be if I'd ever join a club. Full of 'know-it-all' wankers, such as yourself.
Thanks for your comment, toolbox.

i just love how a case of dumbbbbbbbbbbbbthumbs allways turns out to be radio problems,,,at least thats what the dumbthumber claims

With FUTABA 2.4Ghz Fasst I never have single glitch!
Actually I now …
Actually I now believe my problem was not coming in for landing into the wind. I have never had problems with incorrect inputs. Just incorrect landing direction! Oh and by 'near an airport' I meant it was within a mile, not right next to it. I have learned to fly pretty well now, thanks!
The barrel roll …
The barrel roll into the ground, was probably the result of "dumb thumbs" ie an incorrect in put, as the controls are seemingly reversed when flying towards your self.
its well documented that powerlines have no effect on r/c planes, other than if you are stupid enough to fly into them, as for flying near an airport? what sort of imbicile flys near an airport (illegal in most states & stupid as models have to yield to General aviation you know the big planes people sit in)
learn to fly
hey mate, bad luck …
hey mate, bad luck about the plane.
Just wondering . why not join a club? you wont frequency problems.
a couple of pointers,
restrain the model when starting,it wont
never reach over a turning propellor, a severe wrist injury may result
range check radio prior to flight, get your radio band width tested. , looks like you fly at a local sports field, I hope you have a public liability insurance policy, ,insurance cover is a part of club membership, join a club enjoy flying safely
Hey I had the exact …
Hey I had the exact same prob today w/ my Skyartec Cessna. Flew at nearly 200 feat for 10 min, then when I came in to land, it does a barrel roll into the ground. I blame power lines or the fact that I'm near an airport. What do you think, Borat?(ha ha I have a nasty sense of humor too!)
The engine didn't …
The engine didn't look too bad actually. I havent tried to fire it up since though. The fuse is pretty bad but repairable.
was the engine …
was the engine badly damaged after the crash or was it just the fuselage?
no way the 2.4ghz …
no way the 2.4ghz scrambles when someone comes onto there freq looks like bad flying alot of people who crash say they got knocked down because they dont want to look stupid lol no way a 2.4ghz can knock you down
Yes, I know you …
Yes, I know you didnt mean to sound bad. I have a nasty sense of humor, I'm sorry. Thanks for your comment anyways. Must check out your videos now.
dont mean to sound …
dont mean to sound bad ,its a good clip. you welcome ,my spelling not good but you understood anyways , cheers
Umm, yeah, o k…. …
Umm, yeah, o k…. I'll do you a deal. We'll improve our video's if you get some lessons in grammer. Here's what you should have said:
"Try to get some video camera lessons. Keep it still. It's bloody easy to do. My camera shots are still as…. (as maybe). Good clip. Well done."
There you go. See! Its 'easy to do'. Anyway, that lesson was on the house.
Message me first if you wanna leave anyone else a comment before you post it mate. hehe
just kidding. Cheers for the comment.
try to get some …
try to get some video cam lessons keep it still its bloody easy to do it my cam shots are still as good clip well done
Thanks man. Yeah, I …
Thanks man. Yeah, I don't know absolutely but it sure seemed that way. 2 planes, two different radios: 1 on 35mhz and the other on 2.4ghz, two different areas of the field. It is suspect. Thanks for your comment anyways
aw man i feel for …
aw man i feel for ya! if what you say is true ITS ONE CAPITAL DIRTY TRICK!!!
