Flight Log - 2015-01-25 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's MPC Cadet Cruiser

Chinese made, re-labeled with Porky Pig, Warner Brothers style art.

Easy assembly, 1 1/2 hours with no painting. Too large of a parachute at 18", a 12" was substituted. 

Flight Date: 2015-01-25
Rocket Name: MPC Cadet Cruiser
Flyer's Name: Hans "Chris" Michielssen
Motors: Estes B6-4
Launch Site: Schoolyard Soccer field
Actual Altitude: 50.00 Feet

You'd think this simple 4FNC design would would fly straight and true. The skywriting altitude was about 50 feet and the rocket was already on the ground at ejection. It may have a lot to do with the engine sticking 3/4" out the back of the main air frame
