Posted it already sometime ago

6 crashes in one hour (4 min 29 sec)

Lost RC link on this one ...DX7 and AR6200...I was about 1.5km out. Found it using the video. Repaired and flying again

EZ Star Down (2 min 53 sec)

Not quite the same thing DX7 with AR6100. Originally, I thought I lost the RC Link. But after checking the video, failsafe, etc., it turns out my horn pulled out of the elevator.

I also found it by watching the video and figuring out where it went down. Good thing I saved the video!

test.wmv (2 min 43 sec)

Loss of control due to me forgetting to power up my booster.

Stryker - Last flight (0 min 32 sec)

It happens. Gust hit me just before the "go in". I would have made it.

Looks like you were lucky the tree branch broke the fall between the plane and the pavement.

I'm glad the tree was there haha. Usually I get down to the road and slow down and land in the yard.

Oh Maaaaaaan what a depressing thread!

Ok ill have mine up very soon.

Hahaha.

FPV Crash! RC Plane Crash/found, kids discover camera! BUSTED! (3 min 51 sec)

My 1st RC attempt with GumCam on board. New Berg RX was installed and discovered it was inadequate .5km out.
CG was spot on, so the Wild Hawk leveled out and landed itself without me
Before I could reach it, some teen age kids found it and drove away.
Took about 30minutes of detective work and stupid luck.

The plane was recovered...... NO Damage.

Easy FLY Crash, RiP (0 min 41 sec)

This is my Current FPV Platform, an Easy Fly ST330. The grub screws vibrated loose and the motor separated.
(lost some motor mounting screws (on order) and my Pan Servo was damaged.) She'll be flying again soon.

heres a bad day on tape... 3 failed launches, one day, two locations.

Yes, I have in fact flown an rc place before, and yes, I usually am fairly proficient at it... I was having a very bad day...
I love the nose splitter, so lucky to have had such a great perspective of it. Felt like an eternity in FPV, much like the slowmo.

Here's my crash compilation video. Enjoy.
