Darrell Watts' de Havilland DHC-3 Otter on Floats CRASH!

[eclipser2004]

Noticed he got really slow at 1:09 and again at 1:15 but the wind at 1:15 was in his favour. When he got slow at 1:26 the wind was at his back and the stall came before the airspeed picked up after the turn. That's how we all learn I guess.

I got the exact same crash with my SIG 1/6 cub. In my case the CG was to far aft and also went into a spin in a turn. Currently rebuilding...

[eclipser2004]

Starts to get a bit slow around 1:07 I think. Real slow at 1:18-1:20

when the airplanecrash evrething is done not? the electronics servos reciver etc get wet and the motor i think to need to buy a another one ??? orr the motor still works?

[pdevasconcelos]

Slow speed + high bank turn + crosswind (+ pilot) = Stall and spin... (Dead)

[frozenrepack]

where was this?

[edyken77]

nice plane, can't believe that's an 'easy' rebuild though, she hit the water pretty fast! Post more vids of her flying again!

If you aint crashing, you aint flying RC. Nice model, sorry mishap. Tip Stall at 1/2 mistake high, try 1+ for slow maneuvers next time.

Nice vid!

[MrDr650]

@virtualbush I agree. Half the fun of RC is building (and fixing)

[dallaswazup]

the engine didn't stop running until it hit the water.his slow speed may have induced the stall. too bad, nice plane.
