No, not me, but my plane. Put my favorite trainer on the school house roof. Of course, it had to rain 2 inches overnight....
Everything looks ok, the CA'd wing hold down rods have come unglued and the wing has some water inside. Slit the covering (covered balsa construction) and letting it air dry. should I remove the covering and start over?
Wondering about the servos,esc, and rx now. Should I open them up and look for water? I'd hate to add a fresh battery and fry something. The battery was at 3.7 volts (7 cells), gws 370 geared is fine and runs on direct battery power. Jr rx, packed in foam which was dry, may be ok.
Dern Glitch, would not respond to input and landed on the gym roof!
