Flight Log - 2019-08-17 - Steve Lindeman's Tinkerbell II

Tinkerbell II is a replacement o' t' original that I lost at a club launch. Begad! I made two changes on this build. Aye aye! First I filled t' end betwixt centerin' rings with spray foam. And 2nd, I went with twin 15" Mylar parachutes just t' see how they work.

This flight was a test o' twin parachutes for recovery. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Launch was great with great altitude. Both parachutes deployed as hoped and rocket drifted a moderate way down range with no damage on recovery.
