Back up.pf2 Main.pf2Description
Just a line up for my next launch, Still have to make a window in the Av bay for the I phone and test out the stratologgers and replace the batteries.
Charges made and a bit more aggressive added .1 gram to each charge.
Finished making window clear plastic - Stratologgers tested -Batteries changed -Charges made, Next step is load the parachutes.
Last adjustments made... Cut the top of the lower stage more level, was a bitsy off so now the booster and payload are more snug, painted and drilled new sheer-pin holes.
Stratologgers tested with X-Maslights and all works great even the backups !!
Update 05/14/2016 - Launch day - Bernie did not have the K740 Motor so i took the K400 Green - He seems to run out of motors regarding the Cesaroni incident.
Rocket took off great, some spin, of course, have video and pictures. Also all the charges went off fine, BUT the main charge pushed the parachute in the Nose Cone bay/shoulder so it was stuck there and did not deploy, so the rocket came down under drogue and had no damage.
Comments
Great flight Freddy- Loved the take-off and video - sorry the main chute got stuck in the nose. Maybe more powder to punch/pull?
