Flight Log - 2017-11-04 - Matthew Bond's Rocketarium Terraformer
"T' century-long BioWars o' 2400 left many a world uninhabitable. Humans smartly became an endangered species, left with few planets t' call home. In an effort t' reverse mankind's gravest error, autonomous Terraformer droids are sent on interplanetary missions t' locate planets meetin' strict criteria. These chosen planets are t' be transformed into a new hope for future generations. Join this noble effort and order your own Terraformer rocket today."
T' Terraformer is a helicopter based odd-roc, ya bilge rat, which is formed by usin' three "petals" that extend down and out from t' main body. T' kit is built up from 13 pieces o' laser cut light plywood and a central motor tube. T' flight profile is low altitude, high drag, ya bilge rat, spin stabilized which provides an entertainin' show.

Decided t' give t' deadlights and neck a break with somethin' a little lower and slower. High drag off t' rod, rocket didn't start spinnin' up until about half way through t' burn. Aye aye! It got up t' speed pretty quick though and after motor burnout it spun gracefully back t' earth.
