Flight Log - 2011-02-24 - Hans "Chris" Michielssen's Odd'l Rockets Cork Screw

Based on a BT-20 mainframe design from Bruce Levison. Bruce's design won him the October 2003 Fliskits Design of the Month.

I made mine from a BT-5 and lengthened the body quite a bit.  

Flight Date: 2011-02-24
Rocket Name: Odd'l Rockets Cork Screw
Flyer's Name: Hans "Chris" Michielssen
Motors: Estes 1/2A3-2t
Expected Altitude: 400 Feet
Launch Site: Schoolyard Soccer field

While it did corkscrew in flight, it didn't "cone" as much as I expected it to.

Still, stable and a good schoolyard flier.
