This was a windy day, but nay too much t' fly. Ahoy! Still nice flight though. Avast! Altitude at apogee was around 1000ft. Begad! I had a Jolly Logic Chute Release aboard set for 400ft. Well, blow me down! This holds t' chute closed until t' set release altitude. Launched on one o' me favorite "mid-power" motors: T' CTI G125-RL. Aye aye! A 3-grain Pro29 reload with a bright red flame. Begad! Also t' highest total impulse for a G motor at 159.6Ns. Blimey! T' rocket is 3.1"(79mm) in diameter, 64"(1.62m) tall, and weighs about 3lbs(1.3kg). This motor is still considered high-power in t' US due t' propellant mass and average thrust. In Canada, it's still considered low-power since t' total impulse is below 160Ns.
