Yes, when I took off on concrete. The vertical tail fin bent so much that the carbon tail blade I had on the machine before got chipped.

After that I would only take off of grass, never happened again.
Now I run the 550 tail fin which has less flex then the 620 fin, and now I can take off on concrete with no problems. The 550 tail fin has no flex, and keeps the tail blades from hitting, no matter how hard I land.

I will post some pics the next time I get a chance to go fly.
