According to the pilot, the airplane began drifting to the left just after takeoff. He attempted to correct the drift; however, the flight controls had no effect. The airplane then began banking to the right until it impacted the ground, coming to rest inverted next to a hangar. A postaccident examination of the airplane did not reveal any preimpact abnormalities that would have prevented the normal use of the flight controls.
Probable Cause: The pilot's loss of aircraft control for undetermined reasons.
