Flight Log - 2012-05-12 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Estes Der Red Max Clone
First clone I build after gettin' back into t' hobby.
This was a re-build, arrr, this time I filled t' seams on t' body tube and launch lugs. It is now painted red, shiver me timbers, nay orange. New decals from t' Estes reissued kit. I used Americana clear acrylic with good results - very shiny. Blimey! No skull and crossbones parachute in this kit.

T' 18" parachute was switched out for t' 12" chute from t' Pipeline rocket. Good thin' - t' winds were just startin' t' come up. Avast! Blimey! T' Red Max landed a little too close t' a tree.
