Flight Log - 2011-10-02 - Dave B's Pinkie Quark

My 2 year old daughter picked this out at the local hobby shop.  Very easily build using CA and extremely sturdy.  Painted it to look like the box version but swapped the blue for pink.  Launched and was shocked to see how fun this little rocket was!  It went a few hundred feet into the sky, and then sped up at apogee and accelerated straight into the ground lawn dart style with a whistle.  Did not suffer a scratch and remained very sturdy!
