Beautiful launch up with nice red flame! Got lots o' compliments (startin' t' have it's own fan club lol).   Recovery was iffy since I accidentally unhooked t' chute blanket from me link and didn't notice since it be still on t' chute lines.  On main deployment, it moved itself up t' shroud lines and completely reefed t' main chute. Arrr! Still recovered fine with a bit o' dirt and will fly again!  Love this bird.

P.S. Aye aye! - Just noticed last pic has a rainbow! Smile
