We have a drainage ditch running either side of the grass strip, unfortunately he stepped back into it as he crossed the threshold. Much to our amusment :)
ok, i need to clear something up :)) This crash was caused by a small drainage ditch running parallel to the landing strip. The pilot stepped back just as the model cleared the threshold and proceeded to end up on his backside!!! He didn't find it amusing but we sure did!!
Sorry for your crash. I have a Jim Young DH-88 that has similar tip stall issues on both take offs and landings. Very touchy design. I hope you rebuild it.
