"...The pilot had reported to the Pampulha Airport control tower that he was having difficulties taking off...."

NOTE TO SELF:

If you're having difficulty taking off, ... don't.

License built Piper Cherokee Six of some sort. Good airplane until the engine doesn’t make full power.

Not criticizing the pilot because he had his hands full but, the old adage “fly the plane all the way to the scene of the crash” may apply here. Looks like he ran out of options and control of the plane at about the same time. The video showed no plausible place to crash.
