Flight Log - 2012-01-05 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Quest Tomahawk SLCM
Not an easy build with the fit of the tail cone and the flimsey air scoop. Decals were another issue, lots of pieceing together of the long stripes. A good looking model finished.

| Rocket Name: | Quest Tomahawk SLCM |
| Flyer's Name: | Hans "Chris" Michielssen |
| Motors: | Estes B6-4 |
| Expected Altitude: | 280.00 Feet |
| Launch Site: | Schoolyard Soccer field |
Today was the first flight with a B6-4.
I'd let the "crispy" Quest parachute air out before launch. It was cold this morning and I did want it to open.
The Quest instructions say it'll reach 280' with the B6-4 so I'll go with that!
Launch was vertical with a tight corkscrew during boost.
Good flight, but this draggy rocket is best suited for a C6-5.
