Joined a RC sailplane club in LB long ago. One of the members actually built and flew the planes we've all seen in many famous movies. His problem was that he never had to land the planes in the movies, only crash them.... and when at the park with the club, he always had someone land his planes for him. Another member spent 2 years building a replica Cessna, and carved his own appearance on the pilot. He did a remarkable job. Everyone was having fun with how it looked. He let someone else take it up and fly it the first few times on the winch.... When he finally got the courage... He never got it off the winch... buried it into the ground with the winch still hooked on it. Don't think he ever recovered from that. 2 years of work gone in an instant.

When I was a kid, I made balsa wood airplanes and flew them just like this. It almost always ends in a crash! I’d gob glue all over it, and fly it again the next day! My plane was such a Frankenstein it’s a wonder it flew at all.

Reminds me of when as a kid I asked my parents to buy me a plastic Cox PT-19 control liner for Christmas even though I knew zilch about how to fly it, but figured i could learn as I went along. Wrong! I pranged it on its first flight and gave up on it..:)

My first control line flight was as a kid with a Goldberg Stuntman 23 balsa model. I somehow managed to keep it up for a whole tank and got it down in one piece (there was a lot of jerky, up and down flying though). After that I smoothed out and had a lot of fun. This was 60 years ago.

@@battano In my late teens I decided to have a crack at R/C flying and like an idiot mistakenly thought I needed an expensive multi-channel outfit and big planes, it took me a year to save up for a DigiSix outfit, but when I tried to wheel my bike out the door with my 54" wingspan plane across the handlebars to pedal to a field in the country it was too big to get out the bloody door! So I sold off the whole caboodle and switched to small lightweight single channel R/C like i should have done in the first place..:)

my dad crashed mine on its first flight. so I recently bought one and flew it. It's tricky. and it suckks compared to RC. the trick is to use a school baseball diamond to launch and fly over mostly grass. then you have a chance of surviving a crash. pavement, forget about it.

Everything was fine until his STOOGE ran out into the circle. Needed a washer under the left side of the engine mount, an extra big nut on the prop shaft, and a lucky penny or two glued to the firewall. Changing the nut on the control handle would also help. Mullet head causing balance problem with too many curls aft.

Bad pilot with an insufficient engine. It should have been tuned first before flight and checked the center of gravity, control line aircraft have wildly different CGs than RC, CLs are nose heavy in comparison. Tail heavy aircraft have short lifespans. Ask me how I know.
