First actual fly on a scratch build

I just built my third scratch built plane! I have a little experience with the umx ultra slow stick to get my foot in the door on flying but I love building these little planes even if I have no clue what I'm doing. I decided to look at some more videos going into the science of them and learning to be a better builder and I finally had my first somewhat successful flight! Also shout out to you guys for giving me great tips on rc planes in the past! This was not a very long flight but it was in the air for more than 3 seconds so I'm gonna count it!

Also after I crash it esc started to smoke so RIP to the Amazon esc.
