Those are the EMAX motors Tony? I cant find the thread where you showed them but Graham had a problem with his wires coming loose on his EMAX motor.
Might be a similar issue?

That's not good then, you can hear all 4 motors stop though, then one restarts when it hits the deck.... Well it hasn't happened again so hopefully it won't...

I just watched this video on Youtube and commented, but I'll surely comment here, too, lol. The lighthouse was awesome, Tony! Very cool! The weather looked to be pretty decent for ya. Nice job on the flight and a successful, undamaged, landing.
