Flight Log - 2017-10-14 - Matthew Bond's Estes Space Eagle

Interesting variation on the tube fun design, with a long airframe and some extra fins to catch your eye.  It looks like it could be converted to a two stage design without too much effort.

First Flight!   Nice boost, very straight and stable as expcted with a tube fin design.  Arcing back into the wind at the top of the climb, good chute near apogee.  Winds starting to die down, landed on the field about 10 feet from the pad.
