Wow! A beautiful $12,000 RC Jet F-100 Super Sabre CRASHED into an alligator-infested pond!! RC Jets

This is a crash video of the large-scale model of the gorgeous, expensive flying F-100 Sabre. It is a heavy model over 50#. With a high G-pull on the elevator going over 160 miles an hour, it probably put a G-force of 3-4 times its weight and rotated at 70-80 degrees to make that 200-pound jet. The servos on the left elevator broke, causing the aircraft to spin uncontrollably down to the alligator lake! This treacherous lake was filled with vicious, hungry, untamed alligators, and a recent video showed them swimming around. The park ranger in attendance admonished us not to swim in it, and a placard posted "no swimming." Parkgoers tend to feed the alligators, so they stay in the lake. Fortunately, we weren't attacked, although the model's front section was gone. Most of the electronics were recovered, and the turbine housing was also found. It was a $12,000 loss; there was no insurance. The model's owner was tearful and nearly inconsolable, but he rationalized he should buy another. It may help with his sorrow. Is anyone selling an F-100? #RCChaser #crash RC Jet #F-100 #RC Plane
