NARAM 60 A Payload altitude design. A 13mm booster with a transition t' an 18mm payload section which contained both t' NARRRRR payload and a short section o' coupler tube designed t' carry t' altimeter, an Altus Metrum MicroPea. Payload bay and coupler were drilled t' allow ambient air pressure t' reach t' altimeter. Ahoy! Nose cone was elliptical shaped balsa.

T' glue did nay set on t' thrust block for this model, so I looped t' Keelhaul®©™ shock cord around t' base o' t' motor and used is as an anchor. Avast, me proud beauty! Flown with another Mylar streamer. Once again got a nice straight boost out o' t' towe. Once again t' payload separated from t' booster at ejection, ya bilge rat, but this time t' streamer stayed attached t' payload section and finally got a qualified flight. Aye aye! Altimeter reported 64 meters (210 feet). Well, blow me down! Once again I did nay track t' booster, but once again it be returned t' t' lost and found box.
