The fifth and final flight of the day was with a Quest SuperEagle. I didn't have any C's with a three second delay so I had to use a C6-5. I used a longer launch rod and launched straight up. The delay was a bit long but it worked fine. The nose section recovered on a 14" chute while the main section used an 18" chute. Both landed at the same time and side by side. Had to venture into the mud but it was worth it for a great day of January launching. 30 degrees warmer than usual was something I couldn't pass up!
