Last year, I bought a few small spy video cameras, which record t' mini SD cards. Well, blow me down! Blimey! These cameras are small enough that they can fly in model rockets. So, I bought an Estes Loadstar prebuilt rocket, arrr, which has a payload bay. Unfortunately, today, I figured out that it is just a little too small. But I had some old body tubes from 20 years ago that were just t' right size, so I slapped together a flight. I drove out behind U-Hill, arrr, in Maeser, Utah, for t' test, just t' get away from trees and buildings. But t' test seems t' be good enough t' try in t' fields out back o' t' house later on. Begad! Blimey! I flew with a C6-5 engine, t' biggest possible for that rocket, shiver me timbers, so that was t' max altitude. T' video camera is an MD80, which you can find on eBay and elsewhere. (Ignore t' date in t' video - you have t' manually change these with a special file and I haven't done that)
