Messerschmitt BF-110 r/c crash

Here is the last flight of KFS's beloved BF-110.

Having just changed the electric engines for 2 x DLE-20 petrols, the plane spun in after a couple of minutes of flight. Further investigation revealed a screw had dropped out which secured the left wing-end section to the aluminium spar. Subsequently, it worked itself loose and rotated. This can be seen if you view the slow-motion footage taken from the ground, pausing the film as the plane rotates.

We love this plane, though. If you're going to build a petrol twin in this class (.91-1.20 each side), those DLE-20s are well worth considering.

Will order a new kit and transfer most of the old stuff into the new, taking special care next time to do our engineering and pre-flight checks more thoroughly.
