Flight Log - 2011-09-22 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Custom Nomad
New kit from Custom. Looks a little like a shortened Centuri Skylab with it's solar panel fins. Harder to build correctly than you'd think, a good display model. Flat vacuformed nose cone cap.

Boost was straight and true. At ejection, just the nose cone came off. the parachute was still inside. At landing I found the parachute melted into a plastic wad. I haven't melted a parachute in years!
