Flight Log - 2011-08-06 - Jeffrey Gortatowsky's Farside-X

My scratch built version of this classic 3 stager. BMS parts.

Flight Date: 2011-08-06
Rocket Name: Farside-X
Flyer's Name: Jeffrey Gortatowsky
Motors: C6-0/B6-0/A8-5
Wind Speed: 4.00 mph
Launch Site: Santa Fe Dam Rec Area, CA
Actual Altitude: 462.00 Feet

Rod angle was perhaps 5 to 10 degrees down range. Slow wobble at lift off as it headed straight down range. Long arcing flight to 462 feet as measured by the ALTS-S1 in the payload bay. Recovered unscathed in the briar and bramble with plenty of stickers in my socks!
