The experimental amateur built airplane impacted terrain during climbout from the departure runway. Witnesses reported hearing engine noise while the airplane was in the climb. A witness added that the airplane was in right wing low nose up attitude, which then quickly changed to a nose down vertical descent. Inspection of the airplane revealed no anomalies.
Probable Cause: the inadvertent stall by the pilot. The low attitude at the time of the stall was a contributing factor.
