Hangar 9 P-47 Thunderbolt in flight, with sound added.

Pete Nicholson's T Bolt in flight again at Bickley in Kent, at their annual 'E' Flight meeting. All models are electric powered, and this is a BIG model.
Sadly, the flight was cut short due to a malfunction (cause to be exactly determined)
The damage incurred was relatively minor, so we hope to see her in the air again very soon.

Yes, it was definitley a radio malfuntion, the pilot was holding the radio, he then comenced to do a barrel roll it seemed while discovering how close in vicinty he was to the ground then attempting to recover from a steep dive which in turn led to the malfuntion of not being aware of his suroundings focusing 100% all on the plane. Be honest people, Ive done it, weve all done it before, learn from it and teach others your mistakes and be truthful and things will improve as you get better.

Sad, when you crash a plane you really like and to no fault of your own just wrecks your day, week, month and every time you think about it.

Sorry for your loss.
