I liked this one so much that I did it three times. My first attempt wound up with the fins too large for the body tube, so I added a couple of inches of tube to the top. It flew well, and looked great, so I reconfigured the fin scan and built one closer to the correct dimensions. That one had one of the oddest recoveries ever, with the balsa nose cone rebounding back into the top of the body tube and sticking there courtesy of some deep gouges. The third one was an upscale that came out looking and performing great, but I lost it in a soybean patch on the first flight.
