Flight Log - 2009-05-30 - SRP Crew's FASTBOY

Copying the Estes Fatboy somewhat.  This rocket is designed to hold up to a G motor, yet could fly nicely on a D.

Flight Date: 2009-05-30
Rocket Name: FASTBOY
Flyer's Name: SRP Crew
Motors: D12-7x2
Expected Altitude: 1,100 Feet
Wind Speed: 5.00 mph
Launch Site: LaBarriere Park

Straight up and loud.  Very nice deployment but the wind changed slightly and pushed it into the tall trees. Yep. it got treed. Luckily we shook the tree enough to dislodge the stubby rocket.  The duration was quite good at 109 seconds.
