Flight Log - 2012-07-18 - Mark Kulka's Micro Delta-Yellow

Micro Maxx version of Art's popular Delta Saucer. Free plan downloaded from the web site. Very handsome design with a largely traditional flying saucer appearance. The Delta Saucer is striking for its solid conical upper shroud with no openings, paired with a smaller diameter conical lower shroud. This particular one was printed on fluorescent yellow card stock. One of the first rockets that I built as a BAR in 2004.

One of the oldesr rockets in my fleet. Haven't flown it in quite awhile, but it is still in perfect shape and looks brand-new. Flew much quicker and higher than I remembered. Gentle tumbling recovery, like a leaf. Landed very close to the pad. Delta saucers never disappoint.
