Wow. That will take more than a gallon of 5 minute epoxy. ;D I would have to set Bruce's timer a thousand times. ;D
Looked at it several times with stop motion. The plane did a slight roll to the right, then when he corrected with a left input, the tail slid to the right, putting side forces on the fin/rudder. Then the fin/rudder broke off. Classic example of a progressive failure. It wasn't even going that fast.
Fascinating footage. Thanks for posting it*.

*oops! That's a compliment. It will never happen again. ;)
being a beginner like I am
is this an example that you can get any thing to fly if you have enough power... :P
to me he could have kept flying... ::) he got scared cause it did not look right :o
he must of been thinking I got to bring this plane (used to be) down it cant fly like that.... ???
I'm thinking he made a star fighter from starwars ;D and kept flying it. 8)
