I think #1 I turned base to steep there was a mobil home near the end of the runway and I was starting to get close in distance where it was. #2 was going to slow when I made the turn. #3 did not release the elevator to gain airspeed. Face it!!!! I just screwed up. The plane flys great and I will probably take it out this morning and fly again at my home field. I have flown the plane before. It just flys different than the stick that I always fly. With the stick I can chop the throttle, full up and it just mushes straight again while losing altitude.
