Flight Log - 2022-06-04 - Ken E. Coyote's Mega Der Red Max

Stock build, but oh such a beautiful beast! :)

Flight Date: 2022-06-04
Rocket Name: Mega Der Red Max
Kit Name: Estes - Mega Der Red Max {Kit} (9705)
Flyer's Name: Ken E. Coyote
Motors: G76-4
Expected Altitude: 700 Feet
Wind Speed: 5.00 mph
Launch Site: Pine Island NY (Metra Rocket Club)
Actual Altitude: 700 Feet

Great flight albeit not too high.  I was estimating 700' and Flightsketch actually had exactly 700'!  JLCR was set for 300', but seemed to open at around 200 or lower.  Rocket landed in a water filled ditch (torpedo 2 for 2 so far today...ugh), but chute was reachable and I pulled it out of the water and it's drying out now.  Very solid and dependable rocket...will try bigger motor next time!
