Flight Log - 2018-02-10 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Estes Curvlinear

A conversion from 13mm to 18mm for A8-3 and B6-4 flights. Small amount of nose weight added to move the C/G forward. All other build steps were the same.

With the added nose weight it was very stable with the 18mm engine. I'd guess the altitude at 400'. No damage will it drifting into the adjacent field for pickup 200 yards away.
