Flight Log - 2019-08-03 - Matthew Bond's Estes Alien Invader
Another classic Sci-Fi design from the past brought back by Estes. Unique nose cone and fins make this one fun to bring to a launch, plus it flies great. Need to figure out how to upscale the nose cone...

First Flight! Nice and straight under boost, arcing over during the coast. Past apogee, nose down at ejection, chute was inflated but appeared to be fouled. Short walk, grass landing, no damage. Nose cone had ejected through one of the shroud line on the chute.
