Brief:
Parachute recovery, Blacksky Rail usage

Construction:
Three BT-60 tubes were required and one BT-60 nose cone. Ahoy! Begad! It is basically an Mean Machine (Estes), but... Begad! Aye aye! thar are three 6" sections of BT-50 tubin' glued betwixt t' fins, they also contained nose cones and thrust rings.

Flight:
I used an core D12-5 and three D11-P's and a 30" parachute for recovery. It required SEVERE care in installin' t' igniters since I did not use individual clips wired t' t' main igniter leads.. Begad! I installed an "airfoil/standoff" t' use t' Blacksky Launch Rail. Ahoy! Begad! I used one guide on t' rail and t' other on one o' t' outboard tubes. Avast, me proud beauty! Begad!

It flew rather straight, me bucko, ya bilge rat, shiver me timbers, until it was about 2/3 o' t' distance to apogee, when it started spiralin' in t' sky, me hearties, possibly t' added drag o' the stand off.

ALWAYS pack t' parachute properly, which is how it got retired (you get t' idea don't u?) Spread 2 hour epoxy on t' outside o' t' outboard tubes, ya bilge rat, trust me, matey, you will want it, shiver me timbers, t' prevent cato's . Blimey! . Well, ya bilge rat, blow me down! .I had t' rebuild it twice .

Summary:
PRO's; good altitude, arrr, fun t' fly
CON's; hard t' wire, arrr, hard t' build
