Estes Ascender
Flight
Maiden flight. Really a nice straight flight. Open Rocket said the optimum delay would be 5.4 seconds. I'd say apogee was closer to 4 seconds. - E16-6 - Muncie AMA Field [More]

Estes Der Red Max (large version)
Flight
The max flew straight an true to 2000' and floated a bit on the wind- i had to walk a half mile to retrive her. - H 123 - Kaneohe Marine Corps base Kaneohe Oahu [More]
CCR 38mm Carbon fiber
Flight
The CCR went up very quickly and came down very close to the launch pad thanks to the small streamer I put in her. - H 123 - Kaneohe Marine Corps base Kaneohe Oahu [More]
LOC Hi Tech
Flight
The Hi Tech took off very fast and weather veined into the wind. She zipperted when the chute came out after descent had begun. I rebuilt her with a longer body tube. - H 123 - Kaneohe Marine Corps base Kaneohe Oahu [More]

LOC Precision Hi Tech
Flight
The Hi Tech went through a cloud and we lost sight of her. I thought id lost her until being notified that someone had picked it up- I found a lost rocket myself traipsing around in the brush looking. She came down only about 200 yards from the pad - H 123 - Mansfield Washington [More]
LOC Precision LOC 4- Extended
Flight
I flew my LOC 4, modified for dual deploy and extended 24\\\" in length at the WAC October launch. She went up slow to 800\\\' where the drogue deployed, main at 500, landing about a half mile from the launch pad. The nose separated from the body- I got both - I 161 - Mansfield Washington [More]
