Crashed my Spitfire MS today. That aircraft is driving me nuts.
First flight battery came loose and ejected the aircraft, aircraft did a loop and feel from about 2m. No major damage other than a broken spar.
Second flight, got the CG completely wrong. Plane is barely controllable. Eventually the prop comes off and I manage to glide it to the ground. This time no damage.
Third flight. Try to start from the grass field. Not that easy as the wheels sink into the grass and are not big enough. Loose a wheel and abort start. After that a friend helps me to hand launch the aircraft. Manage to do a turn and than the motor dies. Manage to glide the aircraft to the ground.
Today, new motor, new carbon prop and new 3D printed spinner. Starting from the grass is not possible as the grass is to long today. Decide to go for a hand launch. Go full throttle, throw the plane and it goes down into the ground. Not sure whether the spinner exploded after launch or at impact. Again, only minor damage, lower side of the nose is a bit bruised, part of the wing came loose but nothing you cannot fix with a bit of hotglue. Will start repairs tonight but am slowly loosing my patience with this one.
