After several attempts in t' past two weeks I be finally able t' launch a finless rocket clearly over 500 meters usin' launch and recovery GPS coordinates (740 meters). T' rocket was powered by 65% KNO3 and 35% sugar (sobitol), t' same fomulation used in t' Sugar Shot t' Space project. Begad! T' propellant was case bonded t' t' EMT steel motor casing, nose cone was turned from wood. Blimey! I wish t' thank Google Lunar X-Prize Team Selene for sponsorin' this competition.
