I am thinking if the subframe snapped off, the frame wouldn't be real flash either,more like the head stay has ripped the top end off

It ran for a bit at WFO so I doubt the head stay pulled off or damaged the head but it may have been a factor.

Philistine! TT500 motors belong in Profab, GMC (shamelss plug) or similar vintage Husky frames (if the orginal motor is rooted of course).

Think it free revving on mid air then hitting the ground caused the failure. Still impressive to say the least easily qualifies for 'Blow up of the month'
