Flight Log - 2012-09-15 - Jacob Griffin's Competitor 4

This rocket is built to fly on anything from a decent-sized J motor to a 75/6000 M.  This rocket weighs 16 pounds with no motor, and the paint job is a custom design that I came up with.  The rocket is recovered on a Top Flight 18" drogue and a SkyAngle Classic II 60" Main.
