The Challenger is a breeze to hand launch compared to the Swift. I've even went so far as to adjust each aileron slightly upward(like elevators) for successful hand launching of my Swift.

What you have done is created spoilerons. These are used to KILL the lift of the wing so a plane will land more quickly. I use them on may sailplanes to assit with landing.

Retrim them to neutral if you want the plane to fly properly.
