Well....a beautiful fly day ended kinda ackward.....[&:]
We have a sorta kinda mat on the field that makes it somewhat easier for planes to take off. The mat is of a somewhat hard material and stretches out quite a ways.

Since the wind was in a 90 degree angle on this mat, (which I don't use anyway)..I decided to speed up straight out of the pits,over the mat and then airborne. Well..the moment I am to run over the mat, I hit the elevator and ...airborne I was...however...something fell off the T _ _ _ T!!!!![]..Apparantly...the mat stood of the ground enough to where my tailwheel got stuck right before I lifted off...and tore my rudder completely off the stabilizer!!!![:@]The T_ _ _ T just flew like nothing had happened!!I turned her around and landed as of nothing had happened to her!!The force which the tail wheel got stuck behind the mat surface with, had also damaged my servo!!! The internal gear looked like it had exploded and the casing was cracked!![:@]The rod was completely intact, as was the rudder horn....unbelievable. The servo horn was still intact to...the internal gear was trashed!!...What an adventure that was....The Rudder was still intact....one hinge was broken..the other ones were ripped out...Some epoxy and another servo will do the trick to get her back up.....but this had never happened to me before......

All right guys...thought I'd shared my experience of this flight day....
