Flight Log - 2014-12-06 - 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.

Beautiful day, beautiful boost. Deployment just at apogee. So little wind that rocket landed 120' from launch pad.  Those are the kind of retrieval hikes I like.
