Experimental plane fatality in Ohio

A one-seater experimental plane crashed on take-off this evening (Thursday; Friday morning GMT) in Ohio killing the pilot. The plane had been checked by the FAA at some point in the very recent past.

I assume "experimental" airplanes are not plywood and bailing wire, but just a class of aircraft. Is that correct? Anyone enlighten me?
