Another Newb... Just took my FF out for the first time a few hours ago. Let's just say I think I need a new plane now... LOL

Not sure what the problems were. I hand launched (actually had my wife throw it so my hands were in the ready on the controller), but the plane was not responsive at all. First few attempts (w/ ACT) the plane would get maybe 10-20' up, bank left and crash. On the 3rd attempt, I shut off ACT and used used a little elevator to get it to lift. Once up to approx. 50' it would just start turning to the left and if I did nothing to correct, it would eventually just spiral to the ground. If I attempted to correct the turn with very little control it would start to straighten out and then stall out and crash. After about 8-10 30 second flights, the last crash caused the fuselage to snap off at the tail section and the area directly behind the prop (not sure the what this is called) is all banged up. Not sure if this is repairable.

Just thought I would share my pitiful first attempt at flying.... Any tips, advice, remarks are appreciated as I am not giving up yet!!!
