Flight Log - 2017-12-02 - 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.

I usually start my day with a small engine test flight.
First up for me was the Estes CURVILINEAR with the 18mm mount. The A8-3 didn't get a big altitude, only about 100'. Full parachute and normal recovery.
