Flight Log - 2011-12-10 - K Sonesen's CrowBar

This was my first Open Rocket design.  Basically three fins and a nose cone (3FNC) styled after the Binder Design "Spike" but with a 24mm motor mount. I put a lot of effort into getting the fins on straight and have been rewarded with amazingly straight flights - no rotation at all.  Nephew Wes named it "Blue Thunder".
