Little Lumpy 1.5-but happy
2018-04-21 12:20:00ZDescription
2 flights for Lumpy - both success. First one the chute release deployed at the expected 400' but due to wind, still drifted farther than I would have like but still got her back. The 2nd flight was also a good flight but disappointing. Main opened at apogee so I had a bit of a walk (drive actually). Landed on other side of power lines. Turned out the Chute Release Rubber band broke hence the early deployment!

Ah, that chute release, and yes I also noticed that the rubber-bands go bad after a while...
