Default I tried to warn him

So a buddy of mine bought a Nexstar and decided that today would be a good day to not only maiden but also solo his new plane after I have told him several times to go to a club and hook up to a buddy box, but he was to antsy, so I agreed to go along anyway. I didn't pay for the plane so I wasn't going to be out anything. So we get to where he wants to fly and do all the pre flight checks to the best of our knowledge. We then proceed out to the middle of the grass field and start the engine, point the plane into the wind and take-off. He gets the plane off the ground and it begins to yaw to the left about as hard as it could. Ah hell just watch the video. Action starts at about 1:50 and after about 2:35 there is no need to continue watching.
