Second flight of the day. After the long recovery walk of first flight, added a bit of clay weight under top left wing at strut to make glider tip a bit and circle. Lift-off was good again but that was it. There was a louder pop this time when ejection charge went off and motor took out left half of bottom wing along with half of the left wing strut and a 1/2" x 2" strip of the top left wing tip. Glider more or less fell to ground. After some searching found all five missig pieces. Glider will be repairable and flown again.
