LAUNCHES


 
Jun 10, 2005
C6-5 Engine w 24mm engine adaptor - Maiden flight
5+ MPH winds
West Haven Park
 
Single stage launch:

 
Great launch to about 800+ feet?

 
Used 18" nylon chute and it drifted along ways (too long!)

 
EEEEWWWWW!

 


 
Jun 25, 2005
C6-0/A8-3 Engines - first multi-stage launch
10 MPH winds
West Haven Park
 

 
It came off the rod and (I think it) veered to the side that had more weight because of the pods on the booster (and the wind)?
 
C6-0 taped to a A8-3 with centering rings from spent D engine glued on to C6-0:

 
Motors installed in the 24mm mount using an adapter for the A8-3:
Notice the engine hook on the adapter was not in correct place.
