Another nice flight from the Mick!  Swapped out elements in the relaod to get an 8 sec delay.  Headed downrange again to try and cheat the wind.  Nice fast boost, arcing into the wind at the top of the climb.  Good chute deployment at apogee, long chase in the wind.  Even with the head start I couldn't keep up and it suffered a bit of dragging before I got there.  No real damage other than losing some paint from the leading edge of a couple fins.  Ready to go again.
