| Flight Date: | 2022-07-09 |
| Rocket Name: | Nuclear Wessel |
| Flyer's Name: | Wes Munn |
| Motors: | F15-4 |
| Expected Altitude: | 800 Feet |
| Wind Speed: | 5.00 mph |
| Launch Site: | Dalzell, SC |
| Actual Altitude: | 278 Feet |
Very lower than expected altitude. Might be because of the short size couples with the weight of the RunCam2 camera and shroud mounted on body tube. Only launched once due to weather becoming poor towards end of the day. Will try again next month without camera shroud and with a G53 motor. Nuclear Wessel did twirl on the way up -- again, possibly due to the camera weight and mounting position in close proximity to the fins.
