Read the full NTSB narrative
THE ACFT WENT OUT OF CONTROL AND CRASHED FROM APRX 100 AGL AFTER TAKEOFF. THE ACFT WAS ON A TEST FLT AND AFTER THE CRASH THE PLT SAID THAT THE ACFT WAS PULLING TO THE RT DURING TAKEOFF SO HE REDUCED POWER. THE ACFT CONTINUED TO PULL RT BEFORE NOSING DOWN TO GROUND IMPACT. FIRE DAMAGE DESTROYED THE ACFT WHICH HINDERED THE INVESTIGATION.
