Flight Log - 2012-04-08 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Finless (Centuri Plan)

Model built from old Centuri plans.

3" long shroud on back provides some stability. You also add .40 oz. of clay weight.

Long and lean. I've wanted to build this one for years. 

Flight Date: 2012-04-08
Rocket Name: Finless (Centuri Plan)
Flyer's Name: Hans "Chris" Michielssen
Motors: Estes B6-2
Launch Site: Schoolyard Soccer field
Actual Altitude: 300.00 Feet

The last flight with a C6-5 was unstable, the C6-5 wasn't a recommended engine. Today with an old B6-2 it flew great, just a little tail wag at apogee. Full parachute and no damage on recovery.
