Flight Log - 2015-09-05 - Ken E. Coyote's TLP AGM-65B Maverick
One of my early TLP builds. Used kevlar shock cord; however I later replaced with elastic since it snapped (one I used was too thin/fragile).

Used mini-rail again; however this time the rocket flew off a bit to the left and landed squarely in the middle of the river. It slooowly floated over to opposite bank and was retrieved. Minor damage – looks flyable after removing bloated motor and some minor repairs.
