When I started flying I did much the same thing. I had soloed and I wanted to get out to the field and get stick time. One day I was out at the field and there was no one there. The wind wasn't really that bad but it was changing direction and blowing cross ways from time to time from the direction I was used to taking off. Hard headed fool that I am, I had no patience and attempted to take off anyway. Sure enough just as the plane got airborne the wind shifted and I got a crosswind gust. The right wing tip dipped and I wasn't fast enough to react. The tip caught the ground and the plane cart wheeled. It tore the firewall out of the plane and since it was an RTF Superstar and I hadn't built any kits yet I didn't think I could fix it. That little lesson in patience cost me around 75 dollars for a replacement fuse. Now, even though my club field is an hour from my house if I get there and conditions don't look good, I just simply do not fly.
