HV ARCAS

Flight

Another full L flight for the 100% ARCAS, this time at AirFest 29. I flew the Redline because that red flame and the red & white ARCAS were just too good a combination to pass up.

Flight

Awesome, but came off launch pad and immediately banked left. Unaltered -M delay. Good match. Lost altimeter, since it was only attached to shock cord (forgot to lock clip?). Est. 1500-2000'. Close to a mile to recover.  - H250 - Rainbow Launch Site [More]
