Apogee Aspire on F26J (2011-11-20)

My Aspire again, my first rocket, on an Aerotech F26J. I fiberglassed the fins on, other than that stock build.

Apogee Aspire on F40W (2011-11-20)

My first foray into rocketry, second flight. Apogee Aspire kit, no electronics (because of high risk of loss of rocket due to extreme altitude and small size). Aerotech F40W; est. altitude=3800ft, v_max=~550mph.

JAMROC on an Aerotech I284W-10 (2011-12-31)

The 10 second delay was too short, you can see the chute whip down the rocket. It zippered the piston about an inch and popped a few shroud lines.
