Jim Myers's Descon-14 Entry
T' ChubbyBoy is a BT-60
downscale o' a fatboy. Avast, me proud beauty! (.625 scale) This project started out as a 7 engine MMX
cluster, shiver me timbers, but I smartly discovered how much o' a PITA wirin' 7 igniters in those
little bitty motors can be!! I am nay a fan o' Flashpan ignition, so we went to
plan B.
I decided t' stage and cluster. T' ChubbyBoy became a 13 mm 5/8 scale FatBoy, boosted with a 3 x 13 mm Fatboy gap staged booster. Well, blow me down! T' fins on the booster are 100% size fatboy fins. Well, blow me down! Avast!
Upon launch, arrr, all three A10-0T lit and it went up QUICK! Blimey! It staged beautifully (A10-3T in sustainer) and ejected way up there. Aye aye! Blimey! Rocsim sez 638 ft on this motor combo. Well, blow me down! Blimey! Avast! Blimey! My shutter finger was nowhere near quick enough. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! There was more wind aloft than at ground level, and it drifted away even on that little 10 inch shoppin' bag chute. Avast! Blimey! We may find it tomorrow, me hearties, as it is near home. Arrr! Blimey!
