Brief:
THE WANNABE SPUTNIK is a fun and easy rocket to build. No major tools required.
Construction:
To Build: [Remember this is a very SEMI-SCALE rocket.]
Flight:
The Sputnik is a very stable rocket. This little gem has spectacular flight
performance. On one flight a near-catastrophic failure turned into a
spectacular flight. One of the two (on this prototype) dowels was dislodged.
Luckily this prototype had fins attached causing both the sputnik and the
dislodged dowel to gently spiral to the ground. This could be easily made into
a great recovery method.
Recovery:
Tumble Recovery.
