Flight Log - 2012-06-13 - SteveL's Galaxy Probe 1

The Galaxy Probe 1 is a 24mm rear ejection rocket that is a combination of paper tubes, carbon fiber rods and balsa.   I built it to look like some of the long, deep space ships I have seen in pictures and movies.

Flight Date: 2012-06-13
Rocket Name: Galaxy Probe 1
Flyer's Name: SteveL
Motors: E18-7 drilled off 2 seconds
Expected Altitude: 600 Feet
Wind Speed: 5.00 mph

Good 1st flight, went straight up.  Delay was a bit long, had drilled 2 seconds off of a 7 second delay but still to long, but had a good recovery.   Rear ejection worked fine.
