...I have the whole airframe glued back, but the camera busted off the easy pod and I found it about 25 feet away. Seems like there is a small blemish/scratch on the lens, which might not be too bad. All the electronics seem to work (haven't tested the video transmission yet though). Think it will be fine.

How about: "Jeff's Discount Electronics"? You could sell blems and seconds? ;)
Best of luck with the video system.

Yeah, lost all control, and failsafes kicked in (no throttle and zeroed control inputs), and I had my new 3dbi antenna placed out on the far left wing to get it away from servos and rx due to interferance/jitter. That wasn't a good idea. First, it unbalanced it so much that I needed almost full right aileron to fight roll left, next, you can hear failsafes kicking in just before crash and zero throttle and intermittant servo glitches. I couldn't do anything...
