Flight Log - 2016-07-09 - Steve Lindeman's Scorpion
The Scorpion is a sleek little 13mm powered rocket capable of flights to 400'. It has nothing in common with its predecessor (kit 1333, which was a two stage rocket) other than name and manufacturer. Estes needs to do a little more research of their old rockets before naming new ones.
