Tried to fly my F-4 again today after adjusting the CG. It was a no go. The grass was too high and wet. Aborted the first takeoff run. I mowed the center of the runway and tried again. I still couldn’t get enough speed in the wet grass to rotate and waited a little too long to abort and hit a shallow drainage at the end of the runway which bounced the plane into the air and it came down on the front gear and broke the pin and the gear door.
Oh well I will order some parts and try again.
