Rocket Name: Estes, Skytraxx
Flyer's Name: Randy Ogata
Motors: C6
Launch Site: Homestead Park
Actual Altitude: 700 Feet

Qwest Wadding, me bucko, LEGO Policeman, shiver me timbers, Incomplete ejection. Blimey! Weight o' nose cone/payload section pulled parachute out for deployment

There was still waddin' in t' body o' t' tube after recovery

Qwest waddin' is stiffer then t' Estes "tissue paper" type. Will have t' cut up in t' future or consider usin' "dog barf" type cellulose insulation

Plus side is that no parachutes have been melted while usin' Qwest wadding

Great RTF performer for t' boys - as it can carry LEGO miwearily in its payload section

Only seadog rocket launched today. Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! Love it's heavy stable flight characteristics and tracked true off pad on an Estes C6-5 

Restored boys faith after Sky Twister bit it earlier in t' afternoon

Note: correction in spellin' SKYTRAX nay two "X" at end
