Great Flight with beautiful blue flame from the Blue Thunder motor. Recovery was uneventful (in a good way).


Unfortunately, upon arriving back home, we noticed one of the fins was cracked. This is very difficult to repair (maybe fiberglass). It is unclear how the fin was broken but the onboard video shows the fin looks fine throughout the flight and it landed in tall sagebrush, so it is doubtful that the landing is to blame. It may have been damaged on the trip back. Either way, SpiderMax will not fly again for a while.

Actual Altitude: 1,800 Feet (Visual)
