Default RE: no command and lots of frustration! a warning for beginners!

just came in from my short dissapointing but fun while it lasted first flights.....i had a buddy of mine launch the plane ,,,first couple of throws he wasn't putting enough force behind the launch so the plane did a couple belly flops ....when we finally got it airborne i could only keep it above ground for only bout a minute before crashing ...everything still seemed to be in working order so we lauched it again and this time i managed to hit the one tree in the middle of the field and tore the plane all to pieces but i hoping it won't be that hard to fix...as the wing suffered a big rip and one of the steering flaps on the tail was ripped completely off..not to mention a few scratches on the nose ...i really hope there isn't any enternal damage......its going to have to sit for the next couple weeks till i can get the money to fix it, prolly sometime after christmas[]
