Flight Log - 2015-12-12 - Ken E. Coyote's Pro Series II Nike Smoke

Nice rocket! Stock build, lots of flying fun. :)

Rocket Name: Pro Series II Nike Smoke
Kit Name: Estes - Nike Smoke {Kit} (009704) [2012-]

F44-8W used - Rocket flew up fine; however rocket descended quite a bit before ejection and then the chute didn't open.  Rocket still recovered fine under parawad.  Post-flight inspection reveals I had packed in dog barf after it was already added from the previous time and forgotten.  Double dog barf = bad event.  Still, rocket looks to be unscathed and will fly again! :)
