Super Decathlon ARF .46-Phoenix Models,66" RCGF 20 CC Gas Engine.

The wing loading is too high to put a 20cc engine on it. I went electric with a 2650 mah 6 cell lipo and a 1000 watt motor. It fly's nice, as long as you fly fast. I tried a 5000mah lipo just to see how it would fly. The extra weight caused a tip stall on take off. The only thing that saved me is rudder and the extra power of the electric motor. If you put a heavy motor on it you will need a lot of tail weight. The extra wing loading from weight will make it fly like crap. It needs a bigger wing

What happened to the plane? What cause it to crash?

@ThePongski

Tip stall due to lack of airspeed combined with the horrendous wing loading from stuffing a 20cc gas engine (ignition and battery adds weight as well) and didn't have the altitude to recover from the subsequent spin. I have one of these planes, I put an Irvine 65 on it and had to add 8 ounces of tail weight to get the plane to ballance...so imagine how much he had to add with that combination!
