Hi all, just getting started in RC Planes. After taking my fathers advice, I bought a Dynaflite Piece o Cake glider to "learn" on. It took me about a week and a half to complete the kit. We took it out the the field below my dads house to fly it, after about 20 minutes fighting with the engine (cox .049) it was ready. My dad threw it into the air and it flew nice and level, then he told me to start climbing, so not thinking, I just pulled the elevator stick all the way back, strait up into the air and onto its top on the ground. The crash didnt mess anything up, so we tried it again, this time with a little less elevator, but it did the same thing, starit up in the air... this time it broke the elevator and rudder off.
I have absolutely no knowledge of rc planes, so I decided to post here and see if anyone knew what the problem is.

Also, people have told me to throw the glider away and get a regular trainer, any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
