Flight Log - 2013-01-05 - Rodney Earp's Quasar One - Nuclear fusion "RETIRED"

After losing a casing on the last flight, I added a little better engine retention hoping that I won't loose another.

weight with 2 engines (RMS 24/40) 21 oz RTF

Flight Date: 2013-01-05
Rocket Name: Quasar One - Nuclear fusion "RETIRED"
Flyer's Name: Rodney Earp
Motors: E18-4J
Launch Site: ROCC
Actual Altitude: 1,281 Feet

Upgraded the retainer and it worked well. good flight had altimeter going but the chute didn't open and came down to fast breaking 1 fin. the cold creates problems with plastic chutes. about to trash all and buy fabrics.
