I recently built two NCR Hobgoblins. One is orange and black, the other sea-blue and red.

Here is my youtube video of the first flight of the Pumpkin Orange Hobgoblin on a G40-7 White Lightning at an MDRA launch in MD:



My second Hobgoblin was painted blue and red:

The first flight of the Blue Hobgoblin was at Battlepark near Culpepper, VA on October 22nd. This was also on an G40-7 White Lightning:



It was tough to find way out in the deep soybean field. This is a picture of it as found:

This one had a Jolly Logic Altimeter One onboard. It went up a bit over 1/4 mile:
