Yeah....My first takeoff and lanfing were actually more thrilling then the first solo flight by itself. After a while takeoffs became "routine" to me, even with heavy crosswind......the day I made the maiden flight of my new airplane, of my own design, I crashed some 5 seconds after I took off. It was so routine that I didn't care that the crosswind was too heavy at that day.. Just to let all know and don't fall on the same error I felt. If the wind is too strong DON'T FLY!!! I learned it by the hard way.....

BTW congrats!! And good luck too

If you want to take a look at what happened to my plane, look in this thread:
