Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: lavneetgyani on January 24, 2011, 08:41:42 PM yup....radio failure. Went into fail safe!!
Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: anwar on January 25, 2011, 12:33:13 AM What radio system was it ? Was it a receiver power pack issue ?
Sad to see this :( Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: lavneetgyani on January 25, 2011, 07:59:22 AM 14MZ, can never tell real reason. Everything was charred...

Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: sharlock on January 25, 2011, 11:44:48 AM I am quite sure is a case of a 2.4 radio lock out... Just need to know how many people were flying at the time of the crash? At Joe Nall back in 2008 there were similar issues of 2.4 lock outs so now to avoid this in 2009 they came up with a new rule that you cannot turn your radio on until you are ready to fly there are 100's of pilots flying on 2.4 & if all the radios are turned on there is a possibility of a some radios might get lockout. For some people 2.4 is still scary.. so they prefer 72 Mhz

Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: anwar on January 25, 2011, 12:59:54 PM I am quite sure is a case of a 2.4 radio lock out... Haha, standard reaction/blame :) The issue is most likely receiver power, which can be as subtle as a bad switch or stale soldering. For some people 2.4 is still scary.. so they prefer 72 Mhz 72Mhz is any day riskier than 2.4Ghz, especially in crowded fields ! Cases like Joe Nall are unique environments, which would NEVER happen in regular flying fields where you will not find more than 10 or 15 people flying at the same time.Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: SunLikeStar on January 25, 2011, 01:03:02 PM For some people 2.4 is still scary.. so they prefer 72 Mhz Like me, I just cant trust that system enough! An now that everyone is going Googoo hertz, i have all channels for the taking :) Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: anwar on January 25, 2011, 01:05:29 PM Of course, my brother still flies on 72Mhz, and he is one of the two people left in the field who fly Mhz !
Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: tg on January 25, 2011, 01:21:43 PM This could have caused a much bigger issue had the fire got too big to put out. But dramatic video indeed!!

For some people 2.4 is still scary.. so they prefer 72 Mhz No way this crash is due to a switch problem or a dry soldering 80% i would go with excess receiver heat which caused the lockout..

Title: Re: Kangaroo crash and fire Post by: asinghatiya on January 25, 2011, 11:45:10 PM Ohh You think in Head :o....joking...I think camera didnt survived and it was a wireless camera with its recording at ground.
