Default RE: Super Cub LP wont balance

Well second flight of my life and things going pretty good. Kept all the weight on it for now. The landing is pretty hard for beginner its coming at me with little cross wind and there is a big ole trailer on one side and 4 trucks on the other Trying to land in driveway.

So i keep doing big circles cause im not liking any my approaches. Look behind me for split second trying to gauge my landing again and boom plane is nose diving. Such a rookie mistake im pretty low to the ground already about to crash...but i gas it full blast and try to pull up...then i cut the throttle cause i realize its all over johnny....little cub looked like it was a bird about to dive bomb into the lake and come out with a fishy.

Broke the nose cone deal and one of the wing strap things. I was disappointed in myself i hoped to never crash. Oh well.

One thing is for sure though...the full frontal nose dive into the solid ground has proven the battery cant move any further forward in the cage
