<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well guys today was the last day that my Genesis
will fly. Was at the field trying to practice for next weekends
competition, after going five weeks without practicing. I went and set it
out on the runway, and plugged in my arming switch. There was about a
10 to 15 knot wind, not to bad, so I took off. And just as I lifted off
the rudder stuck itself into full left rudder and stayed there, so my bird
became a twirling fortress 3 ft from the ground, I hit full power and was knife
edging, trying to keep the airplane from snapping over, I believe I did about a
10 yard circle, and finally got it back to the runway where I was still on knife
edge, but then the wind gusted pulled the wing up, and flipped it over 5 ft from
the ground, and then. LAWN DART !!!!. Bye Bye Genesis. I
believe ya'll know the rest. So now I'm trying to find another airplane to
fly for next weeks competition, as you can see I procrastinated about getting
another pattern plane just in case anything happened to this one.
So now I'm stuck in a whole.</FONT></DIV>
