Seems my tail design wasn't up to the task of a high speed pass. After the elevator(s?) came off, The plane tucked under and pancaked inverted, leaving it surprisingly intact (the swing wings still work)
Still haven't gotten to swing the wings in flight. I'll probably end up building another one with the lessons learned from V1, as I want to tear down the existing airframe to see how it has fared.
