The fan came off from the housing, along with the spinner. I suspect the retaining screw and washer loosened, causing the spinner to separate which lead to the fan coming off and disintegrating. It damaged the foam in the process of course.

Just did my first 6 flights yesterday. Have a 5100 Carbon Admiral in mine. What a great flying plane! Had a blast and the landings surprised me. It went into a nose up attitude easily and was very easy to land. This plane is a winner.
I noticed quite a bit of vibration in my gear when taxying. Noticed this same thing with my l-39 but to a lesser degree. I saw the same thing on some of the F35 videos. Anyone have a cure for this?

Need some help guys...
Haven't flown the F35 in a while so I took it out Saturday. Had some weird stuff happening in flight that I don't remember happening before and hoping y'all can help. When making 3/4 to full throttle passes, if you pull the power out to idle, the plane pitches up pretty hard. Somewhere around 30 degrees probably. It flies straight as an arrow under power, just pitches up when you go to zero throttle. Puzzled me and I need some help. Thanks!

sounds like a C/G issue. Also are you running a gyro?

I am flying on a 4200mah Hobbystar and kept pushing it further back each flight. I also have the end of the lipo inside the hole at the back of the battery bay. But, just by a 1/4" or so. Still a touch nose heavy at that point but not enough that I thought it would pitch up going from power to idle. Really confused me cause it pitches up pretty hard.
Another thing to check is your airspeed and bank angle during deploying flaps, and also verify your flap servo speed/angle/elevator mix.
The bottom line is the F-35 should be pitching up as much as you're making it sound, so something changed from earlier to now.

Besides the usual stuff like CG that you're already checking, was the model stored vertically, or in any way where the stabs or wings could have flexed to change their relative positions? It's vastly improbable, but not impossible. Heat, storage angles, etc, could in the wrong conditions warp surfaces, the effect of which could be visible in flight.
