Flight Log - 2017-11-11 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Estes Curvlinear
A conversion from 13mm to 18mm for A8-3 and B6-4 flights. Small amount of nose weight added to move the C/G forward. All other build steps were the same.

The .16 oz. of nose weight was enough to compensate for the heavier B6-4 engine and gave a very stable flight.
The Chinese made Quest engine really gave a good ride to about 400'. Full chute at ejection and a long recovery walk because of the wind.
