Hi

I had some sort of a crash today with my trusted Bixler 1.1. Normally I test all kinds of new software and hardware on this poor plane and neither it nor the APM let me down so far.

But today all went crazy and the plane went down in a spin, luckily it hit a meadow so noting happened and everything should be repairable.

On examining the event I have only looked at the tlogs, since the flash  logs of this day seem to be sort of broken. Since I cannot open the flogs/they are to short.

The APM went into initialize, after this it seems that RTL ground was reseted below actual ground and the plane circled down rapidly. My guess from the tlogs would be either a burnout of the APM or some loose connectors...

Power setup is ESC BEC for the servos and an Turningly 3A linear BEC and a 2200 capacitor connected to the input rail of the APM. But unfortunately without the flash logs I'm not able to determine the system voltage, so ideas would really be appreciated!

Tlog time of the crash was 16:17:04 -> Mavlink initialize message.

Tlogs down below, flash etc you'll find on: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wtezdiwxj0j049u/AABbQiEto70J_d80e9HNSuBOa

thanks a lot in advance and regards
