FTFC20 - April Showers Challenge

[FishHawk]

Well April showers have passed, and I didn't get the Aquarius airborne. My transmitter quit talking to the receiver, got that fixed. Then had to run into town. I still need to set up elevons, and then maiden it this weekend.

Com'on, you still have time... I believe in you... Fish-Hawk, Fish-Hawk, Fish-Hawk...
I still look forward to the maiden video either way. have you checked for seaworthiness? can we see that today maybe some water taxiing?

Should do a water taxi test either tomorrow or Sunday. If I do I will try to get video.

All I did was use Maker Foam (the floats were from the ftfb laser cut kit). Nothing else was waterproofed... And I haven't had any issues!
