Default the rising and falling of the calypso

Hi
The day for the calypso maiden has come for today.
We tuned the engine for working well after messing with it, and up to the runway.
My partner was on the sticks, and gave it to run.
Immediately the plane jump to the air and was so nice in the air as no trim was needed.
After some turns a cuban eight was applied and suddenly my partner shouted " I have no elevator"
and the plane smash on the runway at almost 90 degree full speed, and you can see the consequences []
Very first inspection was elevator servo failure ,never mind for right now the servo brand because we are not sure this is the reason.
After some deep search we will conduct to be sure I'll know for sure what has happened, right now the fact is the calypso has gone.
