Flight Log - 2014-08-24 - Hans Haase's Hi-Flier

Friction fit, deleted t' motor hook and hook retainin' band. Aye aye!  Usin' either a 9" Top Flight thin-mill chute, or 2x20 ripstop streamer. Arrr!  

Built t' try for NARTREK bronze duration on parachute and streamer.

Lost after 2 flights, shiver me timbers, ejection problems with t' friction fit and chute.
