Am I ever going to get this plane to fly.... not at it's current rate no.

So facts on this.  On the first glide I later found I have stabalisation on by accident, but on the second launch I hadn't.

It's annoying because we can't simply put this down to a gust of wind of the throw, there's also the uptime as a possible factor which the stab mode would have smoothed out.  So we fix, and we try again out of pure stubbonness to try and get it going.

Damage done after a quick inspection looks like this:

The wooden wing-join piece on the main fuse ripped out, cf rod and tightening bracket ripped out of wing, servo horn pulled out of elevon, 3d-printed pan platform for mobius ripped off, and usb shell going into mobius ripped out.  Should all glue back
