Flight Log - 2015-09-20 - Chris Gonnerman's Skylark

This is a personal design of mine.  I was trying for a larger-diameter rocket in the general style of the Blue Bird Zero, i.e. long and sleek with relatively small fins.  The upper fins are mirror images top-to-bottom of the lower fins.  OpenRocket indicates nearly perfect deployments with all four recommended engines, and I can attest that it is a pretty flier on a pair of C6-5 engines.

Flight Date: 2015-09-20
Rocket Name: Skylark
Flyer's Name: Chris Gonnerman
Motors: 2XC6-5
Launch Site: Spicknall's Field

Perfect flight, but drifted a long way due to oversized chute (my fault); recovered fine.
