Crashed hard, but we were launchin' on a snow-covered frozen lake and t' snow limited damage t' some chipped paint at top o' tube. - C6-5 x 2 [More]
Deuce's Wild Flight First flight for this rocket, and me first cluster ever. Perfect ignition, beautiful straight flight, recovered close t' pad. Avast! - B6-4 x 2 [More]
