Default RE: U-CAN -DO .46 Stab Broke In Flight...Anyone Else?

I had the same thing happen to me on its maiden flight. Right after takeoff at mid throttle I starting to make my first turn and the balsa supporting the horizontal stab at the fuselage broke apart.
They don’t fly very well without an elevator :>
I repaired the plane myself and added tail wires. I have flown it for a few seasons now without any other problems. Here’s a pics I took when it happened.
