And thank Jay (and Carl...) for coming up with that special nose cone. I just got one in my hands yesterday for the first time...

This design, as one could say, is a spin-off of the Tumbleweed design. I really need to get away from these ping pong ball designs for a while. I just wonder if this design really falls at 37 mph as Rocksim says? Hence I added the streamer recovery otherwise I would be going for a tumble recovery only.


Cute, but I'd recommend a color other than green...

Keep in mind, without that streamer you'd need to reconfigure the file to "blow out" the motor casing at deployment, so that the extra weight is eliminated. That would help quite a bit...
