Look good! Flying and approach for landing |
What'd happened! Landed up there? |
Oh! It seems OK! |
Not really. Broken into 3 pieces! Do the home work again! |
Incident 1: Clearwater Bay, 11 March 2000 |
| The accident: A brand new Twist was successfully launched on its maiden flight and landed safely. After some adjustments to its CG and others, it was launched a second time. It seemed ok for a few seconds after launch and it went around toward the slope. Then, it lost control and crash landed on the solid concrete slope above the road. |
| Suspected Cause: Transmitter problem, may be
due to improper use of transmitter setting.
