2024-04-13Loc Eze Park Flyer Flight Really a nice flight. I'd say it came pretty close to the 1093 estimated altitude, but I forgot to put in the altimeter. - Quest E30-7 - Pence Indiana [More]
Rocketarium Berkut Flight There was some discussion with the RSO if this would be stable. Decided to fly it and see. I had added 2-3 ounces of nose weight. A little wobble going up, but it was definitely stable. Unfortunately, it drifted a long way. I saw it come down and thought I had a line on it, but could not find it. ... [More]
US Rockets Mosquito 2.2 Flight Need a vent hole, as I don't think the altimeter was accurate. Seemed higher than 421. 4-second delay would have been better. - Quest D22-7 - Pence Indiana [More]
Loc Scout Flight Windcocked slightly, but wind then brought it back to the pad area. Probably close to the Open Rocket predicted altitude. - Quest E30-7 - Pence Indiana [More]
AAA Model Aviation Fuel Pennsylvania Crude Flight Nice straight flight. E12-4 is a good motor for this rocket. - E12-4 - Pence Indiana [More]
2024-04-06MK IV Rocketry Hawk Flight Had a bit of a wobble but still a good flight. C6-3 would have been a better choice. - C6-5 - Muncie AMA Field [More]
North Coast Lance Delta Flight Motor chuffed once before lifting off. Windcocked but not too badly, Parachute snagged on the end of the wire cable and did not deploy but no damage. - Estes G74-9 - Muncie AMA Field [More]
New Way Letter Go Flight This rocket really flies well. Drew some comments on how nice a flight it was. - B6-4 - Muncie AMA Field [More]
Estes Fireaero Flight Despite 6 fins it did not weather cock as all. Really nice flight. - B6-4 - Muncie AMA Field [More]
2024-03-16AAA Model Aviation Fuel Pennsylvania Crude Flight Wincocked and then landed on pavement, cracking a fin. Repairable. Used a 15" chute but should have used an 18: chute. - D12-3 - Muncie AMA Field [More]
2024-01-06Estes Pro Series II Panavia (clone) (Kit) Review Estes Pro Series II Panavia (clone) The Panavia was a kit that was available briefly via the Estes web site. It was composed of left over parts from other Pro Series II kits. The Panavia used the same fins as the Argent. The Estes kits are almost never seen, but clone kits are available from Bad ... [More]
2023-10-22New Way Squareros (Kit) Review New Way Squareros A relatively new addition to the New Way group of square rockets. They may be square but they fly great. The standard finish makes a great looking pseudo-missile rocket. New Way doesn't give construction ratings but I would say this is a 1 and would make a good first kit. As is ... [More]
2020-07-27Estes Starbird (Kit) Review
I'm always keeping an eye on eBay for out-of-production kits. About a year ago I spotted an Estes Starbird kit. It had been opened, which must have hurt interest as I was the only bidder. All parts were accounted for and I was happy for my good fortune. While essentially a ... [More]
