What happened
During the takeoff phase, the pilot performed the initial start, taxi, and run-up procedures without any reported issues. As the aircraft reached full power for the takeoff ground roll, it successfully lifted off the runway. However, upon reaching an altitude of roughly five feet, the aircraft began an uncommanded bank and roll toward the left side.
In an attempt to maintain control, the pilot implemented corrective maneuvers, but the aircraft failed to respond to the inputs. Consequently, the pilot decided to abort the takeoff by reducing engine power. During the aborted takeoff, the aircraft transitioned onto the soft grass and dirt area adjacent to the runway. Upon contact with this terrain, the main landing gear collapsed, causing the aircraft to slide until it reached a complete stop.
Findings
There were no reported indications of engine malfunction or mechanical failure during the flight sequence. Following the incident, an inspection conducted by the FAA confirmed that the flight control systems were continuous and showed no abnormalities.
