Flight Log - 2015-07-05 - Ken E. Coyote's Mega Der Red Max

Stock build, but oh such a beautiful beast! :)

Flight Date: 2015-07-05
Rocket Name: Mega Der Red Max
Kit Name: Estes - Mega Der Red Max {Kit} (9705)
Flyer's Name: Ken E. Coyote
Motors: G64-7
Expected Altitude: 1,000.00 Feet
Wind Speed: 2.00 mph
Launch Site: Pine Island NY (Metra Rocket Club)
Actual Altitude: 1,000.00 Feet

Very nice lift-off (got two cheers from the crowd next to me)...G64 is a great reload for this rocket!  Used 7sec delay; however that seemed verrry long and 4 sec may be better (note that Estes has G80-7 as one of the recommended motors).  The rocket still deployed fine (after everyone held their breath) and had a great recovery with no damage at all.  Great rocket!
