Baby Clown takes it's first hit!

Baby Clown takes it's first hit!
Not to be upstaged by Travis.
My Baby Clown is no longer pristine
I was wringing this bad boy out too, I was having my best flight double loops figure eights, inverted..... SLAM! silence.
It broke right where the doubler ends. Not entirely sure what happened either
I think maybe I pulled up when I should have pulled down.
That's what I get for getting cocky.

Waaay ahead of you guys. Nose is already epoxied!
The prop or something hit the top sheeting and put a small crack in it.

Epoxy is awesome stuff. I know how bad it feels to do that to your best flying plane. It should be fine though, it gives it character.

Seeing as it was my only plane that didn't have crash damage I thought it already had character....

No worries,
I am going to get good at this, or destroy every plane trying.
