Just about out of sight. Recovered on a streamer. Recovered about 80 yards away but over in the cat-tails. - A3-4 - Sky Vista [More]

Estes Semi-Scale Saturn V

Estes No. 2 Estes Sky Writer

Flight
Nice flight. Landed close - A8-3 - Sky Vista [More]

Nose cone jammed at ejection and the rocket came in and dug into the ground. Body tube was split and chopper blades were bent. Everything else was OK. - A8-3 - Sky Vista [More]

Estes No. 2 Estes Sky Writer

Flight
Nice high flight. Almost out of sight. I'll have to remember that a B6-4 in this one is about the limit that the kids can see. Andrea had a long run to recover it but she seemed happy with the flight. Nice flight and recovery. - B6-4 [More]

Estes Baby Bertha

Flight
I was in a hurry packing this one since it was getting late. I must have jammed the wadding in a bit too much. The nose cone just came out a little but no chute. It came in fast but there was no damage. Not too far away from the launch pad. - B6-4 [More]

Estes EAC Viper

Flight
Another flight for the old bird and another good flight as well. - A3-4 [More]

Estes No. 2 Estes Sky Writer

Flight
Another great flight. I'm going to have to try this one on a B6-4. It gets up there on the A8-3. I like to keep it in sight so the kids can see the whole flight. - A8-3 [More]

Estes Cosmic Cobra

Flight
Great flight and recovery. The copter cone came down exactly as expected. - B6-4 [More]

Estes Baby Bertha

Flight
Really nice flight. About a 15 degree launch angle due to the increase in the wind. And it still landed about 100 yrds away. - B6-4 [More]
