Default CHRISTEN EAGLE ENGINE AND FIREWALL EXPLODED

Hello, im Nicolas from Chile and i have a Christen Eagle with a Zenoah G45 (very smooth, more than the fuji bt50) , Topflite 20x10, well balanced. Last flight in a straight line, at full throttle repentinely the engine blows out with the completly firewall, Design Problem?? Manofacturing Problem? i dont know. I taken some pictures spoken by self. Lucky i can landed the airplane in a deep stall (C.G. very back) with a wing crack

I changed the scheme of the wings monokote for a Visual reason (hard to see its upor down because the feathers)

Sorry for my english

Anyone thinks that Great PLanes can give me the warranty??? opinions to reinforce in a nexy C.E.?
