Estes Yankee - 1999
After purchasing and building an Estes Alpha as my first BAR kit, I returned to the store that same day and purchased this kit and had it assembled in a short time. 

I never thought much of it, but would regularly fly it at each outing. 

Alas, that came to an end one testosterone affected day when I put it up on a B4-4. Not only was the B4 too much for that field, but the delay was too short for safe deployment.  I never saw it again. 

Although I harbor some shame for acting like a kid that day, I am pleased that I have only lost three kits total in my 2+ years as a BAR.
