Lock-out On My Delta-G V2

Dear all, I just came across a problem with lock-outs while flying. First of all, lock-outs happen when you fly in an area with something running on your radio's channel (ex. wifi routers). In my case, I like to fly on 2.4ghz. The only problem with this is that wifi routers also run on 2.4ghz. There were also around 60 dorms next to where I was flying, each of which had a router. My reciever was trying to listen to my transmitter, but the wifi convergements from the bunks were also screaming at the reciever. While exploring the air, I found some definate wifi spots, none of which really effected my flying for more than a second. But soon enough, I found the biggest wifi spot in the area. I had no control over the aircraft, for it was stuck in a roll falling toward the ground. I was never able to recover, and it hit the ground hard. Luckily enough, the magic of EPP foam kicked in, and my combat wing was unscathed. For all you people who fly on 2.4ghz, please make sure you are in an area that does not have rediculous wifi spots, or else your plane could possibly crash. My friend Tomoki wrecked his beautiful motor glider from the same problem, at the same place, flying the same frequency. Remember, if your plane locks out, than land immediately. It's annoying to lose a plane from a lock-out. As always, happy flying!

Thanks,
