Good luck with your first crash mate!
Try to fly it really high, and keep away from the ground. Hopefully that should delay the inevitable.
Welcome to the forum

Hi and welcome. As Dylan said, "fly high" and don't be put off by crashes. It happens. And what ever you do, don't use the anti-crash (ACT). I have read in so many places that it WILL crash your plane. I cut the wires to the sensors so there weren't any accidently flipping the switch episodes. Cheers Paul

Sean I've flown a couple of times at a private field in the Belden area. I think there is Wren Flyers Field between Brewer and Wren, I'm looking for a convenient place near Saltillo/Belden area. After reading your post on maiden flight, I've had a similar experience with a sudden nose dive. Fortunately a more experienced flyer was showing me how to land at that moment and pulled out a miraculously save. After that happened I read the instruction book on the ACT and found that it was because the sun was low on the horizon and "fooled" the ACT. Moral of the story. Better not to use the ACT late in the day with the sun on the horizon. Shoot me an email and we'll get together and fly sometime.
