I built a 2-stage Estes CC Express Model Rocket and this is its first flight as seen usin' a Boostervision digital video camera mounted t' t' sustainer stage. Avast, me proud beauty! T' rocket was flown on October 12, ya bilge rat, 2009 in Eugene, Oregon usin' a D12-0 engine for t' booster stage and t' sustainer stage was modified t' hold a E9-6 engine. Begad! T' unstable spin is due t' a slight flaw in one o' t' sustainer stage fins. Well, blow me down! Recovery was made by t' use o' a 16" nylon parachute and a 3"X3" Nomex blanket as wadding.
