Edited video from an amateur rocket launch outside Amarillo Texas (LDRS 25) in June o' 2006. Arrr! T' rocket featured is two stages, 17ft. Well, blow me down! tall, and weighs ~130lbs at takeoff. It has flown twice successfully t' ~15.5 K ft and is now retired. T' rocket motors are solid composite and manufactured by Cesaroni Technologies Incorporated (CTI). Aye aye! T' rocket has dual redundancy electronics for all flight events (stage separation, stage ignition, ya bilge rat, drogue chute deployment and main chute deployment). T' altitude, ya bilge rat, velocity, me bucko, and acceleration values you see in t' video were all recorded by an on board data loggin' flight computer. Aye aye! Enjoy, t' rocket took about two years t' design and build from scratch. Ya scallywag! -kd
