I took my Cessna for a fly and about 5 seconds after take off i turned to the left and thats where it all went wrong. The motor cut out and it banked hard to the left and ploughed straight into the ground, I can't figure out what caused this, either the ESC had a brown out ( I knew it was going to so I had a spare ) or the 2.4ghz antenna was in contact with another wire and lost signal. Either way it didn't come off too bad and I'm surprised at the ruggedness of this plane. It smashed the cowl and pushed the firewall back a bit, but that's an easy fix, didn't break a prop or bend a shaft or anything from ploughing straight into the ground!
