I'm Done
I'm declaring this project done, complete, finished.
I have started my new project and I flew it today and it too flies just fine too! I need to add a few finishing touches and it too will be complete! I added some more nose weight to the A-7 for the 4-3-10 launch. Awesome on a C6-5. I need some C6-7's to get the fighter dive effect before chute deployment. Here is the club site for pic's and video. http://www.flashrocketry.com/ Last edited by dlazarus6660 : 04-06-2010 at 08:53 AM. |

Ordinance added
Seems my rocket project fell by the wayside somehow. I hate that!
Anyway, I know I said I was done with the project but I needed to add ordinance. well I did just that this week and here it is. It is a little heavier now, with the new ordinance, and I hve not flown it yet. When I do, I will use C6-7 motors in the hope I get the 'fighter dive' effect before the chute deploys. I hope you all like it. Check out my other Fighter Jets I posted Later, Daniel Last edited by dlazarus6660 : 05-29-2010 at 07:00 PM. |

Looks good.
Aren't you a little worried about zippering or stripping the chute with late deployment? With the added drag and weight of the ordinance since last flight, you might want to stick with a C6-5 on the next flight and then decide if you want to use a C6-7.

Ordinance issue
tb,
Thank you. I'm not sure about the dredded "Z" effect. The large 'fuel' tanks are removeable, only the missles are glued on permanently. |

It Flies!
So I flew this puppy again on Saturday June 5th. All the ordinance was attached.
I used a C6-7 motor. Not only did it fly very well, it arced over into a fighter dive before the chute popped out, really exciting. Pics and video are on the FLASHROCKETRY site posted on page four(top of page) Later, Daniel Last edited by dlazarus6660 : 06-09-2010 at 05:27 AM. |

I had a friend that would have loved this one. He always said if there isn't an "A" in the designation then all you do is watch.

I would like to ask about the 'had' comment, but in respect I will not. Do you care to 'clone' this rocket. I will share my information. Daniel |
