So, I test flew my first home-built flat foamie airplane today. Results were...less than stellar. See below the break.


BEFORE:



AFTER:



It flew for all of about 30 seconds. I chalk the results up to pilot error. My "lazy turn" quickly became a "sharp turn," which I failed to rectify properly.

Well, it could have been worse. My wing could have fluttered and exploded. Or it could have just not taken off at all.
