She sure looked good at the Savanna before the first flight. We double checked every thing, I had Mark one of the very experience flyers go through the radio check independently from me, engine was running at 9,400 RPM at full power. Doubled checked the CG again. Conditions were very windy to the extent that I delayed the flight by a few minutes. Then I throttled up , lifted off and she immediately banked to the right. Maybe I did not have enough speed and she stalled, maybe a gust of wind.???? Every thing was still working on the ground, ailerons were not mixed up. The plane had been balanced before the flight. The damage is significant but repairable so we will put her back in the hanger and start again. This is the unfortunate part of our hobby. But it is still a great hobby. To get over the disappointment I immediately took up my Diablo and had two good flights. Diving right back in is the best cure.
