My flight time on a UCD60 was just about 3 seconds. 2.75 of them was spent trying to right the left hand roll when it lifted off and the last 0.25 seconds was realizing I had the alierons reversed, CRUNCH. I salvaged everything but the fuselage, it was really crunched. Minor damage on the wing. Might buy a fuselage one of these days and put it back together.
Lol!
FYI: My "Giant" has an painted in long ovoid area on the canopy and a complete new rudder with new covering and trim, because I did the very same thing.
I had to repair it as best I could because of lack of parts, hence the "sunshade" ovoid over the pilot, but otherwise the plane looks as good as new, and no one can tell it was ever repaired.
I really like wood/balsa in this regard.
