I little trouble getting the motors to light, but once we got past that, a beautiful flight. A bit of a long walk. This would have been a great time to use my chute release, but given that E9-6s have a reputation of self destruction and that there were 4 of them, I decided that walking was the way to go. All 4 motors lit, chute came out no damage. Picture is somewhat out of focus, don't know what the camera was focused on, but a pretty good shot.
