Flight Log - 2015-04-19 - Eric's Chuter Two

Yellow nosecone, white body, three red and one blue fin.

Modified t' use one parachute and one streamer.  Could really use two streamers since t' body section floats on a 12" chute.  I'd like t' convert t' forward section into a payload bay.

Flew high with a slight arc durin' t' 5 second coast.  Upper level winds blew t' parachute section clear into t' next field.  Fortunately it be found t' next day, but t' flight altimeter battery ran out and no data.  T' nosecone with streamer was never found.
