Not a good day for this one...   Beautiful flight.  Low winds on the ground. However, 200 ft and above there was quite a bit of wind that carried the Little John over the tree line south of the launch pad.  It's now approx. 50 feet up in the tree tops.  The worse part is that it is in plain view, taunting me every time I look in that direction as I drive down our driveway.
