Authorities did not release the pilot’s name, and the cause of the crash is not clear.

I'm no expert, but...
- So...they didn't even reveal the pilots gender? Maybe a gender reveal funeral?
- Some of these planes are built so the wings don't fall off

- My first RC Airplane I ever built folded like that.
  
  I instantly knew the spot I used Balsa Wood when I should have used Ply Wood.
  
  Took an hour to dig that engine out of the dirt.
- Looked like the confetti air cannon blew the wing off, rickety plane
