Flight Log - 2012-12-22 - Jeffrey Gortatowsky's AMRAAM 3

Long time in my fleet. Setup for single deployment at apogee using a MissleWorks RRC2. I use the piston. I have a RCA jack passthrough that passes current through the top of the piston to the charge below it. The length of twisted wire is such that as the shock cord plays out, the plug is pulled from the jack as the wires are much shorter. The plug seats securely but not to firm.

Flight Date: 2012-12-22
Rocket Name: AMRAAM 3
Kit Name: Public Missiles - AMRAAM (3") {Kit}
Flyer's Name: Jeffrey Gortatowsky
Motors: H160-7

Super flight but the cable cutter went off at apogee... why? Because I forgot long ago I had set the Missile Works RRC to redundant apogee deploy. Landed .9 km away!
