Default Easy Eagle Crash on first flight

G'Day all.
Just wondering if anyone knew any information of a Easy Eagle1, registration
N707DG, which crashed on it's maiden flight in 2005. Preliminary NTSB
report on stetes that it took a long time to climb, and crashed into trees
and after being seen tail low. (?stalled after take-off). Anyone have any
other info? I heard it may have been due to a poor engine
choice/installation, not as recommended.
I would like to kknow a bit more prior to building the aircraft.
Any replies would be appreciated.

See if you can do a search of the archived usegroup postings.
It was discussed when it happend, but there has been nothing since.
Also, check ntsb.gov and read their final report.
