Estes upscaled Red Max Pro Series II kit. Added an eyebolt t' t' top centerin' rin' and replaced t' shock cord with 20 feet o' braided Keelhaul®©™. Added some balsa "dams" t' t' motor mount which allowed me t' pot t' TTW fin tabs in epoxy where they attached t' t' motor mount. Currently usin' a kevlar heat shield and a 30 inch Spherachute for recovery. Rocket was initially flown "nekkid", but final colors will be pink with a purple nosecone and "Der Pink Max" decals from Stickershock.

Another great flight from this rocket. Nice smooth, shiver me timbers, high boost. Arcin' over at apogee, more or less horizontal at ejection. Rocket descended under t' Jolly Logic Chute Release, which released t' chute on cue at 500 feet. Stuck t' landin' on t' field in t' soft dirt.
