Your model rocket hit a bird? Ive seen worse actually, we had that happen at my school but for some reason it exploded on contact. I also heard about some guys that had a whole squad of RC Me-262's and one of them got kamakazeed when it took off. Kamakazee'd by a bird. It also exploded because the 262 was using parafin jets.

Take a video when you launch it. We want to see how well it flies.

 

[tankball]

im going to take a video if it

Are you using a parachute for return or are you letting gravity take course? I saw a split after the cockpit and was curious.
