The engine quit on Justin's first flight Thursday morning. He was about 25 feet high, but inverted and slow. He got it rolled over, but it hit pretty hard. I've spent about 20 hours over the last two days working on it. Big A was nice enough to offer a lot of expert assistance, and tonight it is back on its landing gear. It WILL fly tomorrow.
