**Multipul Flight Models and Crashes.**

[jahatton]

Hi, how many of you have been bitten because of forgetting to switch the computer radio to the proper flight model
I fly both, the Raven and airplanes. Yesterday I went out with an old friend (Travel Air Bipe) We have floan 25 flights and all were excellent with no major damage.
When the weather got warmer I brought the Raven out for the first time this year (February), when starting the engine, it reved up and engaged the clutch. I shut it down and double checked that the throttle hold was on and the throttle stick was down and same with the trim. Tried it again and again but this time the clutch was no more than powder.
I forgot the Tx was on the Bipe.
Now yesterday I went flying with the bipe.. I started the engine and taxiied out. Takeoff was normal but when I cleared the field it started dancing and went in at full throttle into tall grass. What in the world happened this time!
I looked at the Tx and it was on the Raven mode. CCPM makes for a crasy flight!.
When it happened on the copter, I made a red pin that sit's over the starting shaft. I never thought I would have this problem with the plane.
The damage was minimal and after about 30 minutes it was ready to fly again.
I guess another pin must be made and fixed on the aircraft not used to warn of conflict with flight models.
Anyone else had this problem?

I've came close
But when i checked the control surfaces i noticed that the controls were wrong (part of my pre flight) and changed it
