Flight Log - 2017-11-04 - Matthew Bond's Estes Mega Der Pink Max

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", shiver me timbers, but final colors will be pink with a purple nosecone and "Der Pink Max" decals from Stickershock.
