Welcome to my online Rocket log! Here you will find a complete record of all my Model Rocket Flights along with a few pictures.
As you can see, I don't own any high power rockets. Why you ask. Because they are way out of my price range, and there isn't a field in Maine large enough to contain one, (except the all the blueberry fields, but I don't want to drive half an hour to a large enough one just to fly a rocket.)
2/13/00: Finally finished the equipment section.
Under Construction/Repairs:
ROCKETS:
WEATHER: Light breeze, Sunny around 50-60 degrees.
COMMENTS: Finally got my dad to take me out to launch after about 2 months of jack crap. Other than the bugs and a few cuts (fell down a few times... you try running as fast as you can through a rocky, bumpy blueberry field, looking up the whole time) it was a lovely day for the fleet.
First went the Raider on a A10-3t for a normal flight, as usual. then went the Molasses I on a B6-4 for a splendid flight. Next went up the AMRAM on a C6-3. The stupid thing drifted right over the tree line, but luckily there's nothing but bushes past that. Then went the Firebird, which had a good flight on a C6-5. After that went the Molasses II on a C6-3 for a good flight. Then Big Bertha went up for the first time in a few months on a C6-5. Then I flew the Astrocam for a good flight, but now I can't get the stupid film to advance. It better not be something wrong with the rocket... And finally went the Silver Comet on a D12-3 for a loud and firey flight.
PICTURES:
I am 14 years old and live on the coast of Maine. The coast isn't the best place for rockets because of the wind, Maine isn't exactly the best place either now that I think about it. (all the trees) I live in a small town of only a few hundred people, so know one bothers me while I'm trying to launch. I first started flying rockets in 96. I came across an estes display in a hobby store in Lake Placid, NY. I bought an Super Shot starter set, from then on, I was hooked. But a year later, I stopped. I don't remember why, I just did. But after talking to a friend about the good old days when we'd launch my rockets, I went down cellar to see how the little things were doing. Then I went on A2Zhobbies.com and ordered 80 bucks worth of rocket supplies. I am now, once again... hooked.
