A throw at an angle and a gust of unexpected wind and a nose dive did a number on it.
I think I am going to try to fix it and leave as much of the original balsa as possible. I'll let y'all know how it goes if anyone is interested.
Disaster!

I'll take it back out when the weather is calm for more flights.
