Battery was checked prior to the flight, but had 0 voltage afterwards. Haven’t checked the system for a short yet...crash was brutal though, so hard to know what was cause, and what was result.<BR><BR>Amazing the sound these planes make when they crunch. Complete carnage in a newly plowed cornfield.<BR><BR>Anyhow, now that I’m done drying my tears, I need a good backup plane. Preferably something similar to the Brio, (Ideally another Brio). Anyone have something that’s built and ready for a 1.60DZ (that I’ll need to rebuild too, since the crash torn the
side off the crankcase!!)<BR><BR>If so, please contact me off list!
