Everyone who builds has a little of the "I dont want to crash my baby" syndrome. When I started flying I was about 12-13 and my mom told me "You dont get to cry about crashing your plane; is a grown-up hobby" After the initial "Aw, Dam IT" of a crash Im OK. Their are some planes I have that look like they are hanger queens because I am scared to crash and that may be true but it is true because the suck as airplanes; they need to be on the ground and I need to build a better version. My planes are some of the rattiest at the field because I fly and fly the same thing until it is worn out. Some last forever; some a flight. The more you fly the more fun it is. I am an A&P and I build my models. I had a pattern plane crash on me last year and I was happy. It never flew right to be a pattern plane and when it crashed I took the radio out and the engine and stomped it and put it in the trash. Some planes are just like that.
