Flight Log - 2016-02-06 - K Sonesen's BAR Crayon 38mm

This is a modified version of the Bay Area Rocketry 38mm kit.  I moved the motor tube 2" aft, added a third centering ring, and an Aeropack retainer.  I also used a kevlar y-bridle, 15' of 9/16" tubular nylon, and a KSR 30H chute. All connections are made with 1/4" quicklinks. I added 5 ounces of ballast to the nosecone so that I can launch on I225 motors and similar.

LCO's grandson pressed the go button on "3" during the countdown so the launch caught be surprise. There was some small amount of thermal activity so the rocket traveled a bit further downwind than normal and landed on the top of a stand alone knob. D'oh!
