The maiden flight was on a D12-5(no flight data)
The second flight was sweet, but I need a slightly larger chute. One of the tube fins took some damage on landing.
The locking motor mount functioned flawlessly.

Looks great. I have a scratch built copy in progress at the moment.
I'm hoping to spray the outsides of the tube fins this week.
I'm dabbling with the idea of doing some colour shift squid like blobs on the body tube / fin externals.

What I did for the tube fins was to fill, primer and paint the insides of the fins 1st. That allowed me to hold the outside of the tube and just sand off my finger prints when done. Then I used rolled up paper to "mask" the painted inside of the fins. The external tube lines were completely filled with primer and smooth as silk by the time they got painted.
