Flight Log - 2012-01-07 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Quest AS-1 Escort

While it's a great design, building the kit was a pain. The model is actually 13 3/4" tall, not 17.3" as advertised on the face card and website.

Errors in the instructions, not enough decals and a badly pre-cut parachute. It's be a tough build for a younger flyer.

I finally flew the Quest ESCORT with a B6-4. Airing out the crispy parachute before flight didn't help it unfurl at ejection.
