Long Tom had a successful flight on 8/4 at NARAM 60. Begad! Blimey! T' K750 Red Lightnin' motor by Cesaroni performed perfectly and sent it t' an averaged altitude o' 6975'. Ya scallywag! Blimey! I have data processin' and analysis t' do since me simulations were predictin' ~5350' and no tweaks can crank more than 6200' out o' t' simulator. Ya scallywag! Blimey! Its airframe is 5.5" doublewall LOC tubin' with a fiberglass elliptical nosecone and 1/4" plywood fins/wings. Avast! Blimey! Onboard was an 808 hd camera, Missileworks T3 gps tracker, Missileworks RRC3 altimeter, and Perfecflite Stratologger CF altimeter. Arrr! Blimey! Readings: 6980', ya bilge rat, 790 ft/s (~540 mph) via RRC3 (primary) 6971', 810 ft/s (~550 mph) via SLCF (backup)
