Flight Log - 2018-11-25 - Matthew Bond's Estes Dark Energy

An "exotic" class design, utilizin' a long, highly detailed nosecone, and "T" cross section fins which are also canted with respect t' t' airflow.  Originally produced with an 18mm motor mount, me bucko, I built mine with a 24mm, ya bilge rat, given t' size, weight and additional drag from t' fin design.
