The pilot stated that the accident airplane is a single seat airplane, the only one of its kind, and he was training to make takeoffs and landings. He said it was his second flight in the airplane, and while attempting to make a landing with a crosswind from the left, the left wing dipped and the airplane veered left. While attempting to recover the undercarriage hit a runway light and the airplane pitched downward impacting the ground on its left wing and nose. Prior to the accident there had been no failure or malfunction to the airplane or any of its systems.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain control during the landing flare/touchdown while attempting a crosswind landing resulting in the left wing impacting the ground, and a collision with runway lights during the attempted recovery.
