Flight Log - 2016-01-16 - Matthew Bond's Rocketarium Mega Vortico

A helicopter style odd-roc, with four "blades" that extend out from t' central 24mm motor tube.  Literally a larger version o' t' 18mm Vortico.  Constructed from a total o' 7 laser cut light plywood parts.  Flight profile is high drag, low altitude, spin stabilized, very entertaining.
