RS1 Flight 2 - 7/28/2022

C6-3. Broke the 100' mark, but at a certain velocity, the wings begin to fold up, stopping vertical velocity. Chute didn't deploy all the way, but zero damage to the rocket. Great fun!

RS1 Flight 1 - 7/28/2022

B6-4. Maiden flight. Converted from Baking Soda/Vinegar fuel to solid rocket motor. Great little kit for this conversion and flew just fine. Didn't quite hit the 100', so will try again with a "C" motor.

Yankee Flight 7 - 7/28/2022

C6-5. Not a very good flight. Motor ejected out instead of pushing the chute forward. Rocket lawn darted in and buckled front 1/2" of the body tube. Can be repaired. May have broken the camera and altimeter, as neither are working right now...... although I was able to download the data from each before they died.
