Ever had one of those days when nothing went right at the flying field? Yeah..here is one of mine caught on tape. (well video anyway)
At the end of the vid (the camera missed it ) I lost all control of the plane due to interference. Guess we didn't get it fixed after all. The plane spiraled downward straight towards my house. It was within about 5 feet from the roof of my house when suddenly I had control again and as you will see it the vid...I landed it quickly. Later we discover the metal spark plug boot was cracked open at the seem. After fixing that ..no more interference.
( unknown manufacture) Laser 200 with a Super Tigre g-90 converted to gas with a 14x6 wood prop and a 10 1/2 pound flying weight.
@spsickfastsupra
It was a very old kit built ( I think) plane and was very solid but heavy. (10.5 pounds RTF )
The St .90 gasser couldn't pull it. Check my other vids..I tried the St.90 on a 8.5 pound profile and it worked much better. Also on another of my vids I used a Kalt 22cc gas engine on the laser 200. It flew much better.
