On-board me dual-deploy rocket at Tripoli Central California on July 16, 2011. This is a custom-built rocket based on Performance "Little Dog" fiberglass with Telemetrum avionics flyin' on an AeroTech I245G. Ahoy! Video is from a GoPro and an on-board HD keychain camera. Arrr! Havin' gotten L2 certified on a motor-ejected rocket earlier in t' day, t' goal here be simply t' get a proper dual-deploy flight. Ahoy! This was t' third flight for this airframe (nicknamed "Angry Plum"), followin' a failed L2 cert attempt in June. Avast! Based on t' lessons learned in that flight, shiver me timbers, I completely rewired t' av-bay and used a screw switch t' prevent power glitches. I opted for a modest Level 1 motor t' keep it well inside visual range.
