Flight Log - 2015-03-01 - Ken E. Coyote's Rocketarium Mega Vortico

Looks like two popsicle sticks stuck together...kinda like t' "helicopter" all o' us made growin' up; however it takes surprisingly big motors.  Was quite a hoot t' fly and very entertaining. Ahoy! I'll be bringin' this t' most o' me launches. Aye aye!  Added a spiral red pattern t' one side and black stripe edgin' t' t' other...looks AWESOME!

Great flight!  Got around t' paintin' t' MV with a spiral red pattern on one side and black tips on t' other...I really like it!  This time I launched it "right side up" with t' motor tube pointin' up and it flew up great with a flutterin' sound and spun all t' way up. Ahoy!  However on t' way down, matey, it never went nose first and while it was still spinning, me hearties, it wasn't gainin' rpm t' way it did when I launched it upside down.  Still a GREAT rocket and one o' me favorites.
