DO AS I SAY , NOT AS I DO! MAIDEN OF DANCING WINGS STICK 14 BY FGFRC!

Well I got the Dancing Wings Stick 14. Got her together finally after staying up all night at it. In my sleep deprived delirium I thought I had EVERY thing done, checked and ready to fly. So when I went out to the field I just grabbed the plane, battery and radio and just went for it. There was just enough friction fit on the one flap and the other aileron that were not secure to pass the control surface test. Got her up and that pressure friction fit let loose and I lost control of both control surfaces. Suddenly I was flying with only one aileron and the opposite side flap. (flaps each are independant,not on a y lead) The tail feathers were fine however! But I just stuck the nose into the wind and did my best to control the descent while keeping the wings as level as possible. And also keeping the nose up as the best I could. I GOT VERY LUCKY!!! They say the good Lord looks out for fools, well he was sure looking out for me today that is for sure! Well let me properly finish this b
