From the "pilot", gull wing broke in half, firewall torn out. Took it home, rebuilt in 2 evenings of work, with super glue and epoxy. Flew again succesfully, without cowl, added later once engine was running stable. Crash caused by trying to make gull wing Corsair fly without enough air speed. Use the whole runway with these guys, especially when you add 3 lbs of glue...CG was good, the glide ratio on a Corsair is just above that of a Rock or F-16.
It took you 60 seconds to go in a couple circles then gun the engines? O.o

Too much wind may also be a factor

the 2 mistakes that people always seem to make when flying!
Don't check there cg
and have there Ailerons backwards.
Don't ever blame the wind the pilot is the one that decides to fly!
