At the pt. magu airshow last year, i was going to be the junior representitive for my club, simi valley flyers, in simi valley, california. At the time, i had a great planes easy sport. I went out the day before the airshow to practice my 5 foot inverted runway passes (i was getting good at them too). On takeoff, at the end of the runway, with 15 feet of altitude, and due to a sharp climb, no airspeed, my engine "died". My best bet was to swing it around quickly, and land it in the weeds. I tried. I almost made it, when my engine "came back to life". because of the downthrust, and my low airspeed at the time, the plane lurched downward, into the ground. Snapped my fuselage clean in half. I panicked. I had to get the thing done by the next day for the airshow. It did not hit hard, but i was lucky it was such a clean snap. We brought it home, bought some plywood and some more 30 min epoxy, (we were almost out) and set about fixing it, fast. Then we recieved a call. The airshow was off because a real plane had exploded in mid air. Both pilots were killed. After all that panick, and Rushing to fix it, it was all for nothing. So, now in no rush, we set about leasurly testing the equipment. My throttle servo had stripped. The g-forces of takeoff brought the servo arm back. the g forces of the plane facing down, brought it back forward again. i have no clue how that happened.....
