Flight Log - 2015-03-08 - Ken E. Coyote's Quest Falcon
Got used and came with a crepe streamer. Repainted it and now I really like it! Great looking classic rocket.

Don't remember the last time I flew this one, so it was time to wake the Falcon up! ;-)
High winds check launch. Had an old red crepe streamer attached. Lift off was fast and went up higher than I thought it would until it was a speck in the sky...at apogee the ejection went off and I could see that the streamer had detached...wasn't sure if it also had the nose cone. Body still came down on the snow fine about 100' away and luckily nose was still attached. Streamer had broken and decided to ride the winds to neverland. Rocket is still a great sport flier!

The old version came with a different kind of fin can. It was of a softer more flexible plastic and all one piece.
