Flight Log - 2017-12-02 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's AVI Nike Tomahawk
Build from an old AVI catalog page. I don't know if this kit was ever produced.
Sport scale at best, arrr, it used t' old MPC Nike Smoke and Tomahawk plastic fin cans. I ordered parts from Quest and built up t' center adapter from cardstock.
A real hard one t' mask.

I am always concerned about ejection, it's a tall model and t' parachute is all t' way at t' top. Aye aye! That 12" parachute is tight in t' 20 sized tube in t' Tomahawk.
T' Estes B6-4 boosted it t' about 325', t' chute did eject and open without any problem.
