Bad things happen when the elevator jams during a loop....

Was that a Aileron or Elevator jam?

elevator jammed so as I rolled it pulled me into the deck...

[WJCJR1]

Real bummer, was it a friction between the tail section and elevator or servo based?

[ATIS]

I had too much throw and got the arm and push rod jammed too far back and the servo was unable to center itself...stupid mistake I should have checked for binding issues...I always check now on all my planes when I set them up...hard lessons are life lessons!!

Looked like a nice save though. ;D

[ATIS]

thanks, I had to replace the wing...thats the one thing that didnt survive!!
