Default first crash

I have a GWS Slow Stick that I recently flew for the first time (my first time flying any plane). I crashed it into a soccer net and broke the rudder off at the base. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix it so I can wreck it again.

Dustoff22,
Sorry to hear about your crash. Cannot say I know how to fix your plane, because I haven't seen what the damage really is. Post on the Crash thread site and the repair treads; most people checking out this section will have less experience repairing them then visitors to those threads (Disclaimer: if this is not you, then I am not talking about you). Were you out trying to fly without the help of an experienced pilot? I have met people who think that it must be easy to fly the planes, for what ever their reasoning. It will become easy with time, but I would never suggest just jumping out there with both feet, because you may find yourself over your head. If you have a local club, join it and I am sure someone will be glad to get you back in the air.

Buy some epoxy or "foam safe" CA and just glue it back on.

For future reference, posting electric questions in the "Electrics" forums will get better results.

Elmers Probond works well. You can buy at at Wal-mart. You'll find it in the hardware/paint section.
