Made 4 flights like this. Can't believe I missed it when I put the canopy back on.

I will not be doing that again.

What are the rubber bands doing there to begin with, just wondering?

Take Care,

Hold downs for the radio gear. It is held in primarily by a velcro strap going from left to right, the bands are there as a backup to keep the stuff from moving front to back if the velcro strap decides to go away. I changed the RX battery out before a flight and somehow forgot to reattach the bands before I put the canopy back on. Lucky I remembered the velcro.

Ah, at first I thought it was a home made servo wheel strain relief

yea, actually the cyclic response was a bit sluggish so I tried to get the servo to return a little faster
