On pad 1. Much higher flight than the B6-0 flightsSmile. Spool still does its free fall for the first 10-15 feet before starting to tumble end for end. Snapped the top CD on landing so will need to replace againFrown. One of the gentlemen from the H.U.V.A.R.S. club suggested that I try and double the discs to see if it would be more durable that way. Will rebuild it that way and give it a try.
