Flight Log - 2023-05-13 - Steve Lindeman's SS Kevin Andrew
SS Kevin Andrew is a scratch built rocket that I designed in memory of my late younger brother who passed away on 3-4-19.
Note: The purple nose cone pops off at the top so I can use the crayon part as a cargo bay. (It originally had a bag of gum balls in it.)

Decided to step this one up as there was almost no wind. Went with an E12-4 for this flight. Rocket shot off the pad straight up to around 1000'. Parachute deployed just after apogee. Long walk to recover this one and found that rocket had spit the motor out. Was lucky that the parachute deployed.
