Built from a Baby Bertha kit and online plans. This version of the Shuttle is more like a Goony. All decals were re-drawn and printed at home.

Arrow straight boost with a slight weathercock into the wind. Altitude was probably 400'. At ejection the parachute deployed and I was in for a long 1/4 mile walk to pick it up. Drift was the big issue.
