Default Blamed For a CrAsH !!!!

Ok now i not sure if anybody has wrecked a plane in a way where it looked like it was pilot error but MANNNNN!!!!...... [:@][:@]
does it get on your nerves when the entire way home your friends talk about it like it was your fault
''Should'nt of been flying, it was to windy''
''Should of landed when i said something''
''You always gotta try something like a, Loop and Barrel Rolls''
''See!!! now thats what i'm talking about''

we had a P.O.S Airbus Electric Park Flyer, No Elevator, No Ailerons and i repeat P.O.S!!!!!
It was one of them 2' Wing Span, made out of plastic, Assembly Line , Japan Made , 50$ RTF , POS!!!!

Flying strait when all of the sudden, looked like I did some type of barrel roll and then lost control of it making it plummet nose first shattering in piece's into the ground..........

"Well here's the catch" i didn't pay for the plane, i was doing the Maiden Flight Test on it

But the Buyer of the plane thinking that i was doing a Barrel Roll when i didn't Press Anything PLUS!!! even if i were to try something like a Barrel Roll or a Loop, it would have been Imposable to do with that plane
:controls:
Throttle Up ---- Plane Went up
Left and Right ---- Left Prop Spun/Right Prop Spun

So Pretty Much it was a Glider....

So does anybody think they know what happened....

weather conditions
Clear
70ยบ
Wind 5-10mph wind gusts
steady Breeze 5mph

Flight Path:
Hand Launch
Figure Eight at about 30 - 40 feet above ground in a about a 30 square yard ratio
did about 20 passes
Wings were Strait when in about a half a sec the plane fliped 90% making the plane inverted,
and with the controls being limited the plane went nose first into ground

Could a Radio Hit do that??
Wind Gust??
a pothole in the sky??
a ghost??
turbulence??

all i can say is should'nt have wasted your money on a E-bay Impulse Buy......
