Default First "real" crash Kadet MkII

It was little windy out at the field yesterday. I thought I'd take the Kadet out and since I'm a noob I thought I'd see if I could solo since the field was empty. This plane had always handled windy days very well so I can't blame the wind for any part of the crash, just stupidity. This is the result of a low altitude aileron roll. I don't know what I was thinking or why I attempted to perform a stunt as a noob so low to the ground. I think it was over confidence brought on by an earlier perfect 15 minuite flight and the fact the simulator has a reset button. These plane are much easier to transport in trashbags.

Sorry to hear of your crash. At least you know what "not" to do next time.

Sorry about your crash, but I have learned one thing after couple of years in the hobby. Real life, just like the simulator has a reset button, two accually, its called credit or debit. Stick with it. Thats how you learn.
