looked very underpowered to me. Why start the take-off roll so close to the hedge, no chance of getting anywhere near take-off speed. As soon as it was hauled off it was game over I'm afraid. Long run to gain airspeed and a very gentle climb out with that power, IMHO. Was up elevator (to keep tail down) held on for too long perhaps. I have 35mm up, but have set 40% expo!
Sorry to see the model damaged though, but useful info for when I give my YT Spit its maiden in a few weeks time.

ouch, what happened? looked like a slight over reaction to the sudden climb?
