Nice, easy 1/4A flight. Should be easy, right? Apparently, the amount of humidity in the air didn't sit well with gliders because two were attempted on the day and neither would separate. The Semroc Blue Jay eventually did after several attempts, but the Mini-Dactyl only got one shot. The flight arced over at the 200' point and the glider rode the whole way down. No damage. I'll try this on a less moist day.
