Read the full NTSB narrative
During initial climb following takeoff on a local area flight, the power glider's engine lost all power and the pilot conducted a forced landing to rough, uneven terrain causing damage to the tail cone, left wing, and landing gear. Examination of the engine provided evidence that the magneto ground lead had separated.
